Here we go then. Say we continue bottoming out in tests but win the World Cup in 2019 (which is realistic and arguably what Bayliss was brought in to sort out after the 2015 Moores fiasco.) Is that mission accomplished?

Still a complete shambles though. I wasn't throwing the baby out with the bathwater after the Ashes but there has to be a reaction from the players now.
Additionally I know you could argue...
