That's the problem KP has, the middle order is very settled and very good. The only option might be to push Root back up to open but I don't see that happening now. Bringing back Trott is just ridiculous. He was on the slide a while before he left and with a summer full of some seriously fast bowlers, bringing him back, and opening with him, is beyond ridiculous. I would try Lyth next to Cook for a while and if that doesn't work then they might have to again go back to Compton.
I wonder if KP would be interested in opening. All around the world now teams are opening with aggressive batsmen, it might just work. But it would be hard for him to do that at this stage of his career
