England's 2017 Ashes squad lacks quality batsmen and there is a very real danger that they will lose.

We propose that Paul Collingwood be added to England’s Ashes squad because…

1. He is 41 and hasn't played international cricket for a few years. As such, his selection would be heart-warmingly, life-affirmingly optimistic
2. He's already travelling to Australia as part of the coaching staff, so his inclusion would also be cost effective
3. There’s no-one else better
