Collapses in West Indies brought back bad memories of 2019. Little seems to have changed with pressure to succeed at Test level still leading to bad decision-making
Another series defeat and England have now won one of their past 17 Tests. Whatever decisions are made over the next few weeks I expect this run to continue for a good while yet because, put simply, where you need a nucleus of quality, experienced players at the heart of a Test team they have a vacuum.
Particularly in this form of the game, the lack of experience countering different conditions is unquestionably a disadvantage.
