The England team is captained by former fast bowler and fan favourite Darren Gough while taking charge of the Aussies will be the one and only Shane Warne. Luckily for all cricket and poker fans, there is also a spot on each side for one online qualifier, who can win their way into the team and an all-expenses paid trip to the UK this coming June.
