    Marcus Trescothick says England attack can be compared to 2005

    Archer, Tongue and Atkinson are all capable of high speed, while Robinson often operates below 80mph with the wicketkeeper standing up. His accuracy and ability to extract movement have seen him take 23 wickets this summer at a remarkable average of 8.3.

    “We’ve got a good contrast in what we’re trying to do at the moment,” said former opener Trescothick.

    “What we do have is three guys bowling at 92 miles an hour, which is really nice to have in your armoury and to have the potency in what you’re trying to do.

    “And the more that they play together and the more experience that everyone gets together, then it fits into place to how you want it to be.”

    Writing for the Telegraph on Monday, England’s captain in 2005 Michael Vaughan said the current attack can only be compared to his bowlers when they win a major series.

    But Vaughan added: “They are certainly capable of doing something really special, and winning back the Ashes for England next summer.”

    England will aim for a 3-0 clean sweep of Pakistan in the third Test at Edgbaston, beginning on 9 September.

    The home side will confirm a squad for the series finale in Birmingham in the coming days.

    There were seven pace bowlers in the squad for Lord’s. Brydon Carse was originally included, only to be removed following an incident outside a nightclub in Derby. He is not expected to be considered for England again until the conclusion of investigations by the police and Cricket Regulator.

    In Carse’s absence, England’s back-up seamers are Sam Cook, Sonny Baker and Matthew Fisher.

    The trio have only four Test caps between them, yet Trescothick hinted England are likely to resist the temptation to give the reserves more Test experience.

    “First and foremost I want to win the series 3-0, and I think if you’re going to do that you want to play the most consistent team possible,” said the 50-year-old.

    “We’ve got to see how they all pull up from this game, and they’ve got four or five days now of break which they’ve not had for a good period of time because the schedule has been so busy.

    “Once we know that then we’ll be able to make that decision, but emphasis massively on winning the series 3-0.”
