It's a new era for English cricket with a new coach and new captain. First up is a Pakistan.
Jake, Nick and Will unpack an eventful month which saw Brendon McCullum follow Ben Stokes out the exit door with Stephen Fleming and Joe Root in.
Nick questions why a decision on the coach was not made earlier this year and explains why the six months since the Ashes have been wasted. Will says it's a shocker that Fleming is not coming in for an immediate start this week against Pakistan.
