Who will win at Lord's?
Ian: "England will come out all guns blazing at Lord's. If it's overcast, and England win the toss, they could put Australia in to bat.
"I have been so impressed by Australia and am worried by the confident way they have gone about their business. I am leaning towards Australia.
"I expect Steve Smith to come roaring back to form at Lord's."
Richard: "I think both sides would be happy enough bowling first. Conditions will be crucial. I am going for the England win.
"For top batsman bets at Lord's, I will be looking at both sides' middle orders. Alex Carey looked in really good touch at Egbaston. I was really impressed with Cameron Green too."
"If Starc does not play then Pat Cummins is a bet for top Australian bowler."
"For England, Ben Stokes had a really good tempo to his batting in Birmingham.
