Australia's batsmen could be fed a diet of bouncers after England named Stuart Broad, Steven Finn, Chris Tremlett and Boyd Rankin in their Ashes squad on Monday, said former Test captain Nasser Hussain.
The tall quartet of pacemen are all capable of bowling at speeds in excess of 145 kph and will find the hard wickets to their liking when the Test series starts in Brisbane in November.
"We have seen some of the Australian players, their captain Michael Clarke in particular, not play the short ball that well. So they want to go after them with bouncy bowlers," former England skipper Hussain told Sky Sports television.
