Ashes: England need big hundreds to beat Australia - Michael Vaughan

England's batsmen will have to score big centuries if they are to retain the Ashes, says former England captain Michael Vaughan.

The tourists face a big defeat in the first Test against Australia after being bowled out for 195 in Brisbane, and the hosts need just 56 runs on Monday to go one up in the series.

England had seven innings of 38 or more during the match, but James Vince was their top scorer with 83 in the first innings.

"My problem is can I see England getting big, big scores against the Australia attack? I have to say I don't see the 400-450," said Vaughan on BBC Test Match Special.

"The top seven of England's order will have to do the majority of the work to get the big scores and a couple will need to get some big scores.

"They have to believe they can bat for a few hours. If you can get to 50 you can get to 100. They've got players who have got in and spent time in the middle."

All-rounder Moeen Ali - who followed up his 38 in the first innings with 40 in the second - was frank about England's deficiencies after they matched Australia for much of the first three days at the Gabba.

"Obviously, I'm very disappointed. I thought the first three days we played well and were in the game - and then today we let ourselves down with the bat," he said after England lost their last five wickets for 40 runs, their last four for 10 and their last three for one.

"We got in and never really went on to get that score that we needed. It didn't quite go to plan and it's cost us. Tomorrow we're just going to have to try and get a few wickets.

"We obviously won't win the game but just to get the wickets will sort of put a dent back into Australia for the next game in Adelaide."

Moeen insisted he is confident England had the players - even without star all-rounder Ben Stokes - to beat Australia in the series.

"The first innings we reached 300 without (Joe) Root and (Alastair) Cook scoring any runs. That is a bit of a positive. The new guys played well," he said.

"Australia are a good side but probably not as good as we sometimes make out. We know that we can compete and are going to have to compete very well in the next four games."

Moeen said he respected the decision to give him out in a contentious, tight stumping for 40 off spinner Nathan Lyon.

After numerous close-up replays from different angles, third umpire Chris Gaffaney decided there was enough evidence to suggest Moeen had no part of his foot behind the crease line.

The inconsistent width in the popping crease line, which has been repainted several times during the match, seemed to count against him.

"If I was bowling, I would want it out," Moeen said. "I guess it depends what angle you look at it from.

"You've got to respect the umpire's call and what he saw. You've just got to move on.

"I thought I was all right personally, but the replay did look very tight, and obviously I'm disappointed with myself that I got out in that fashion."

It was the first time Moeen has been stumped in a Test match.

BBC cricket correspondent Jonathan Agnew said: "I don't think I've ever seen a tighter one than that. It was a hairline. I think it's the right decision but it was the tightest margin."

Australia bowler Mitchell Starc, who took three wickets in the second innings, said: "We've got our plans to all the English batters.

"We've spoken a bit about their tail, obviously. The way our boys bowled against them in the last home Ashes, we've used that as a bit of a blueprint.

"I'm sure they can expect some more short stuff as the series goes on."

The barrage was reminiscent of the preceding home series, when the Mitchell Johnson-led pace attack mowed through England's tail repeatedly to help secure the 5-0 whitewash.

Cracks in England's side - analysis

I said before this Test that Australia would win the series and win it comfortably and now they are starting to flex their muscles. They probably have a few more good players in their side who can contribute regularly and we've started to see a few cracks opening up in England's side.

Both teams have areas they can improve. Australia have not been perfect - they were 170-5 yesterday and England were looking at a first-innings lead - so they'll have to look at their batting.
