See everyone is calling for heads to roll (quite rightly) but who are we going to replace these players with? Personally I'd bring Hameed in and give him 10-15 tests as we've nothing to lose.

The problem is the cupboard is bare the spin bowling situation defies belief.

Just get a new captain in Morgan and drop Stoneman Root to open
 
Just watched a bit of IPL final. The dancers are hilarious, deffo not Pans People. (Oh, that dates me)

Morgan doesn't play red ball cricket for Middlesex although he's a good skipper Root opening as well? Not a prayer that's going to happen. The county calender is killing young top order batsmen
 
A mass overhaul is required.

Stoneman doesn’t look good enough. Malan is similar to Vince in that he flatters to deceive. Wood may be quite fast but his test record is terrible, and the alternatives aren’t anything special either.

Furthermore, you would think Cook, Anderson and possibly even Broad are coming towards the end of their international careers.
 
Keaton Jennings in for Stoneman for the second test. Surprised there weren’t more changes tbh, although there’s hardly a queue of test quality players ready to step in.
 
We've prioritised one day cricket at county and Test level.

We now have good in-demand T20 players and an excellent odi team, but it's come at the cost of having a competitive Test team.

Problem is their is not much else currently.

It’s the worst batting line up in a long time.
