With Anderson out, England leaves call on 11 to toss

Associated Press  

BRISBANE, Australia — Jimmy Anderson is sidelined but his fellow pace veteran Stuart Broad is in contention to play in the Ashes series opener after being included in a 12-man England squad on the eve of the first test against Australia. Broad, Chris Woakes, Mark Wood and Ollie Robinson were all included as specialist pace bowlers, along with star allrounder Ben Stokes and left-arm spinner Jack Leach. Buttler said the 39-year-old Anderson, England’s all-time leading wicket taker in test cricket, appeared to be fit and the decision to rest him for the Gabba test was precautionary ahead of a long, five-test series. Buttler also said he’d faced Broad in the nets in practice, and Broad was “good to go.” England hasn’t won a test match at the Gabba since 1986. ___ England : Rory Burns, Haseeb Hameed, Dawid Malan, Joe Root, Ben Stokes, Ollie Pope, Jos Buttler, Chris Woakes, Mark Wood, Ollie Robinson, Stuart Broad, Jack Leach.
