hold fire the media will be getting the carving knives out. mainly due to what graves said about the west indies. i hope that man has some ideas that will help, because he hasn't started well in my opinion.

as for the playing and coaching, we have to kick sentiment into touch, australia are, SA are, thats why they win. We also have to be willing to change the team, it isnt football where constant changing hinders the team, in cricket you can take players out if they dont suit conditions. Ali, trott and one of jordan or stokes should have made way for rashid, plunkett and lyth. its all fair saying its hindsight, but lets face it, the coaching staff are always one step behind
