Friday Fives - Ian Bell

The England cricketer picks his dream five-a-side team.


Every Friday we will bring you a special Friday Fives feature, with a different personality picking their dream five-a-side team made up of players they have played alongside in their careers.

FATV caught up with England cricketer Ian Bell ahead of the Test match with India. And there's a twist to the tale too, as bell includes some of his cricketing team-mates in there!

While our Friday Fives series is a bit of fun with fans, current or ex-professionals, The FA Umbro Fives competition allows every five-a-side player in the country the chance to replicate the feats of Evra's greats, with the overall winners being crowned the official five-a-side champions of England at Wembley Stadium.

The competition offers the best teams in the country the chance to play in the national final at the national stadium and follow in the footsteps of some football legends. The deadline to enter a team was 29 July and the first round of heats will get underway in the new season.
