#1 Alastair Cook
Alastair Cook has not been in good form for England for almost a year now. There have been murmurs about his retirement in the press. In the three Test matches against India, he has scored just 80 runs in five innings at an average of 16. Cook, alongside his opening partner Keaton Jennings, has failed to provide a perfect start for England in this series.
He hasn't used his feet at all to the Indian pacers and hence has nicked the ball a couple of times. Being a good player of spin bowling, he has surprisingly got out to Ashwin twice in the three Test matches so far. Hence, England should consider the option of dropping Alastair Cook in the remaining two matches.
The English selectors should look for an appropriate replacement for Cook from the county circuit.
