Didn't everyone declare Haseeb Hameed the savior of English Test Cricket when he debuted age 19?

If you're good enough, you're old enough. How do you find out if someone is good enough? Give them a chance. Simple, really...

True. And, give them time.

also a little patience probably won't be too bad an idea. Eng has had some real tough series - Aus in Aus, NZ in NZ, and now Pak (who were rather stupidly underestimated, despite their recent record vs England). None of the last three opponents has been weak.

Jos Buttler is a poor wicket-keeper. The only way Jonny B should give up the gloves is if Ben Foakes is picked.

Tom Curran might have bowled himself into contentiin had he not chosen to go to the IPL.

Shows how far we have regressed when we are struggling to hammer a pathetic Pakistan side. Not a single Pakistan player is genuine top class. Maybe Amir on the rare day he turns up.

Like Nasser ( in the jeans) Just watched mills playing for the rest of the world  bowled with serious pace if he didn't have a back problem he could have become just what England needed at the right time.

Easy to state the problem, not so easy to come up with a solution!

That's pretty much I was saying....Was Curran a colt at your club?

Right time to forget all the negativity and back the boys!

We know we’re rubbish but at doesn’t stop us supporting (much like most football fans)

Hope Curran does well will also help produce rough for Bess to work with!

COME ON ENGLAND
