Cricket legend Nasser Hussain has said that there is still time for England to drop current skipper Alastair Cook before the start of the World Cup.
Cook has come in for some strong criticism in recent months for England's poor performances in both the Test and one-day arenas, with Hussain suggesting that a potential decision to replace the captain wouldn't be too much of a gamble.
"It would not be too much of a gamble to replace him now. It should have happened months ago, of course, and more dynamic players should have been given time to bed into the side, but England do not have much to lose now," Hussain wrote in the Daily Mail.
"It is a question of whether they want to rock the boat and hurt the captain they have put such store in by admitting they were wrong and giving the captaincy to Eoin Morgan or, at a push, Joe Root.
"It's understandable that the focus should be on Cook, but that does mask a lot of problems that are just as serious as his lack of runs."
England's latest one-day series defeat came at the hands of Sri Lanka, making it a fourth in a row under Cook's guidance.
