I wouldn't be sure of Broad either but,as needs must as Broad said. Root is shot through now,so plug a gap for a summer or two.
Broad did do well, what is not clear is would he do as well if he had played the first 3 tests. It seems maybe he should have, but that would make England's attack Robinson, Broad, Anderson + whoever for the first 3 tests and like Robinson they could all be screwed by now. The batting has totally failed,so it would still be 3-0.
Who knows except I reckon Root is done as captain, as are Burns as opener and Buttler as keeper, and perhaps Stokes at 5.
I hope Hameed gets a score.
Bairstow, who knows.
Best to be out of the team at present.

Good point about being out of the team, due to the Gareth Barry effect, Foakes is now a cross between Alan Knott and Jesus.

Back to Broad, he did really well as a pundit last summer, I think his long term future lies on screen. Unless he retires to one of his pubs with his popstar? girl friend/wife?
