After Barbados bruising, England ponder changes
By Simon Evans
Jan 29 (Reuters) - A year in which England will host the World Cup and the Ashes started in the worst possible way with an emphatic 381-run 敗北・負かす by West Indies in Barbados and they 直面する major 選択 choices for the second 実験（する） in Antigua starting on Thursday.
For West Indies, led by one of the game's most exciting talents in all-rounder Jason 支えるもの／所有者, the contest at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, 申し込む／申し出s a chance to 証明する they are a team on the rise -- 有能な of more than just 時折の 勝利s.
For all the 焦点（を合わせる） on England's 決定／判定勝ち（する） to play two spinners and leave out experienced seamer Stuart 幅の広い, the fact remains that England's loss was 原因（となる）d by a shocking first-innings batting 成果／努力 as they were skittled out for a paltry 77.
関心s over England's batting 増加するd when part-time spinner Roston Chase took eight wickets in the second innings.
Questions are 存在 asked of England's left-手渡すd opener Keaton Jennings who is struggling again after showing his 能力s with a century in Sri Lanka in November.
It would be a surprise, however, if England's selectors decided to すぐに jettison him for 32-year-old 支援する-up Joe Denly but Jennings will again be under 圧力 to show he 長所s that 約束.
Jennings will need to show real toughness to rise to the challenge but that is a 質 former 船長／主将 Michael Vaughan feels the team is 欠如（する）ing.
"They do not have the mental strength to fight through 堅い 開会／開廷／会期s by working hard and 軍隊ing bowlers into their third or fourth （一定の）期間s. They are 罰金 when they bowl a team out or make a big 得点する／非難する／２０ batting first themselves but poor when they are under a little bit of 圧力," Vaughan wrote in his Daily Telegraph column.
Vaughan pointed the finger 堅固に at Jennings and is worried he won't be able to 扱う 支えるもの／所有者's pace attack.
"Keaton Jennings is a good player against spin but every time he 直面するs pace I shut my 注目する，もくろむs. He does not know where his off stump is and, as an 開始 batsman, that is your number one 仕事," he said.
幅の広い is likely to return to the attack but it is far from （疑いを）晴らす who will 減少（する） out and with Antigua かもしれない friendly to spin, Joe Root may still need to keep two slow bowlers.
The mood in the home （軍の）野営地，陣営 is buoyant, after all there have only been two other occasions when the West Indies won a 実験（する） by bigger 利ざやs by runs.
They 敗北・負かすd England by 425 runs in Manchester in 1976 and 鎮圧するd Australia by 408 runs in Adelaide in 1980.
While the results of the Caribbean 味方する remain 井戸／弁護士席 below the 基準s they once 始める，決める, there are 調印するs they may be turning the corner -- the victory in Barbados was their eighth 勝利，勝つ in their last 21 実験（する）s.
Those victories 含む two against England and Pakistan and one against Sri Lanka but 支えるもの／所有者, now 階級d as the world's 最高の，を越す 実験（する） all-rounder, knows there have been plenty of 誤った 夜明けs for his team.
"We´ve still got a long way to go. One 実験（する） match doesn´t make a summer," he said. "We´ve been in this position before, so lots of hard work to be done."
