Ladbrokes have revealed the latest odds for England’s Ashes squad with heartache predicted for pace bowler Chris Tremlett and flamboyant batsman Ravi Bopara who at 2/1 are outside of the favourite 16 to get the call.

Monty Panesar at 1/4 looks set to take the back-up spinner position ahead of 7/2 James Tredwell and 10/1 Adil Rashid. Craig Kieswetter has drifted out to 7/1 behind 1/16 Steve Davies as number two to Prior (1/50).

Steve Harmison is a 16/1 long shot for a shock recall, with the bookies also offering 100/1 for Andrew Flintoff to overturn his retirement announcement and make an appearance in one of the tests.

Captain Andrew Strauss is 7/2 to be England’s top batsman, in form Graeme Swann 6/4 to be their top bowler and on home soil Australia are 8/13 slight favourites to regain the Urn .

David Williams of Ladbrokes said: "England have had a settled squad for a while now but with a couple of places in the 16 still open to debate they’ll be some nervous phone calls being taken over the next 24hrs."
