Time to get rid of Jennings and Moeen. And I can't believe Joe Root is considered one of the world's best batsmen. When did he last get a big score?

Be Broad and Curran - they'll pass Denley off as a spinner

Woakes has a good job there as never likely to play.

Shame he's suffering so many injuries. He always seems to be improving as a bowler just needs a run to add the necessary wickets.

Going to be an improvement on the first test first innings score.
Small apples, but it's something.

England helping pick the Aussies Ashes attack for them. Need to pray for a wet summer.

Could be low scoring games in the summer if that happens

Would have been a decent attack to have unleashed Olly Stone on had he been fit!

Balls are popping all over the place!

Any chance of Broad and Anderson making the 2 openers actually have to play a ball?
Really poor opening spell!

Didn’t learn from the first test and made the same mistakes. Poor batting, weak shots, think ramps may need to be replaced as coach as it’s not working

A player known for his own mental weakness at test level and not being much good against pace

I think we should have realized by now that form in the County Championship means little when it comes to opening for England in tests.
Englands openers lasted just 39 balls and were out for 10 runs between them.
West Indies openers have lasted 127 balls and have scored 30 without loss.
I'd vote for Haseeb Hameed to come back as an opener.
He has the defensive qualities sorely needed for an opener to be difficult to dislodge.

I think there is also a lot of these batsman playing too much 20/20 and ODI and this is translating into the test team. Cooky played like a test cricketer whereas a lot of our current lot don’t and get bowled cheaply inc our captain
