Livingstone in for the extra boing option. Also Duckett for the extra left-hander. Woakes in for the crucial ability to hit big further down the order.

Also, would start LH-RH and let Buttler come in 3rd and let Salt keep wicket.

Couldn’t care less how many 50’s Stokes has in this format. He’s a world class batsman in any format and is capable of taking the game away from the opponent in the blink of an eye. The fact he can bowl if required just makes it an even more obvious selection.

With the exception of Buttler, I’d sooner drop any of those batsmen than leave Stokes out.
 
I genuinely couldn’t name the best XI the talent is frightening. Still quite fancy the ozzies on home soil though.
