Ben Stokes has played 115 Tests for England
Captain Ben Stokes says England will go "balls to the wall" in their only Ashes warm-up game after "has-beens" questioned their limited preparation in Australia.
England will play a three-day game against an England Lions team starting on Thursday at a park ground in Perth. The first Test at Optus Stadium begins on 21 November.
The build-up to this tour is similar to England's preparations for their five previous overseas tours under Stokes and coach Brendon McCullum. England have won the first Test of the series on each occasion.
However, it differs from many of England's previous Ashes tours, when they played several warm-up games.
