Flanker I think you're wrong. They're already on it, taking decisive action and showing strong leadership:

we have nether young or quick :( Even 'bowlers' is questionable.

Does this reflect on the county game/coaches, or just that cricket isn't seen as an interesting/profitable sport for the better young athletes these days

I think they will let Moores go until the end of the Ashes tour. Then step up, Jason Gillespie.

He'll have come a long way since the 'where's your caravan?' chants :)

You can just see a couple of players scoring big runs against Afghanistan and it being spun as some sort of success (though one of their seamers in particular looks useful!)

It really is time to pick something like:
Moeen
Hales
Taylor
Roy
Root
Buttler
Billings
Stokes
Woakes
Rankin
Mills

I'd happily have Jordan and Finn in there somewhere. Something like that gives exciting batsman after exciting batsman, two out and out quick bowlers, a third and fourth seamer and a spinner and a half. It's largely a T20 side for 50 over cricket, which seems to work for everyone else.

Go on, who would you pick?

I'd open with Boycott and Tavare, other than that, spot on :-)

I think you will find that Boycott's mum is in better form with the rhubarb.
