The England cricket selectors are set to take a massive punt by picking Jonathan Trott for his Test debut in the Ashes decider at The Oval starting next week.
The BBC reported the South African-raised batsman is set to come in for the out-of-sorts Ravi Bopara with Ian Bell to move up the order to No.3 after scoring 126 for Warwickshire this week.

Bopara had made just 105 runs at 15 in the opening four Ashes Test before making 52 for Essex on Friday.
