Time up for A Cook? 08:25 - Dec 14 with 1796 views | chicoazul | Not a great 2017, daddy hundred against a poor Windies attack at home apart. Average below 40 thanks in large part to that same daddy. One century in the last 12 months. I love the man and how he carried himself as captain but maybe it's over. Horrible to see him struggle so badly. | |

He's had poor spells before and come back but it must be tough to continue playing in a side you captained for so long. I can't think of many players in recent time who have continued to have success playing for England after resigning the captaincy, certainly not when they've been captain for a number of years. | |

(Which should probably be within the next 2 years) Jennings and Hameed are the obvious successors who both need another 12 months or so to iron out their game and get some more runs under their belts in domestic cricket. | | | |

Had an injury early in the season, but managed to play most of the domestic season.. Just struggled to make any runs and looked bang average. There were some calling for him to be called up regardless and play him anyway. Quite glad we didn't as the media would be incredibly unforgiving of a 20 year old short of form and we'd probably never see him again. When in his pomp, he looks like the natural successor to Cook so hopefully he can regain that form again | | | |
