Isn't it mildly worrying that we depend on Broad and Anderson so much? I mean, they've been titans and everything, but who is the new blood coming through?
I really like Sam Curran although he isn’t as effective overseas. Robinson I thought looked promising last test, archer will come again assuming he can get over his elbow issue. Woakes is a miss in this test series as he always performs well at home and obviously stokes is always good for a key wicket.

Not concerned about the seeming options where as I am concerned about the lack of a quality spinner. Bess and leach aren’t good enough, Ali doesn’t seem interested in test cricket and the same with rashid sadly. Been a problem since Swann retired

Matt Parkinson might be worth a try. Can’t be much worse than Bess and Leach.

Could Simon Harmer become eligible to play for England? His stats are always amazing for Essex.

Parkinson deserves a shot but it would probably have to be at Old Trafford which is probably the only home Test ground that has enough bounce to give a leg-spinner a decent amount of help. For that reason I think a tour (where he actually plays) would be better for Parkinson.
