00:00It's hard to look beyond Glenn McGrath, unfortunately.

00:13Ashamedly, in the 1999 World Cup when I was 10, I wanted an Australia shirt because of

00:18Glenn McGrath, so I'm embarrassed to admit that.

00:21He was my big influence in wanting one of those, so I would say Glenn McGrath.

00:29I am going to come on the other side of the coin and say Joe Root.

00:33I think he's had such an influence on Ash's series, in particular at home.

00:38I think that this series in Australia is his great opportunity to cement his legacy as one

00:44of the best players that ever played the game.

00:49I am going to say Ben Stokes, purely because of his catch off Stuart Broad in 2015 that

00:57led to Broad doing his cheeky monkey face.

01:02One handed as it was going behind him off Adam Vogue as his outside edge, so Ben Stokes.

01:10Steve Waugh, I think, was a captain.

01:13Ricky Ponton was a close second clearly because of the success that he had, but yeah, thinking

01:17of iconic moments in Ash's series and yeah, Steve Waugh.

01:20I thoroughly enjoyed my time playing Ash's cricket with Joss Butler in 2015, we're really

01:30good mates and yeah, to have him out there for those big moments in my career and to be

01:36able to share those with him was special, so Joss Butler.

01:39From an English perspective, I would say Stuart Broad for his ability to wind almost everyone

01:47Australian up and I think he's continuing to do so before this series and from an Australian

01:52perspective, David Warner who is a ferocious competitor and someone who didn't mind selecting.

01:58the
