Not really, Mark Ramprakash scored a shed load of runs in 2009 and there was widespread calls to play him at The Oval. England resisted the calls and gave Jonathan Trott his test debut.

A young up and coming player wins because he'll get KP's place. Opposition international teams win because England will now be a weaker team. And KP wins because he can now open himself up to various offers around the world, especially the IPL. The team loses because he's one of their best players. This will be the biggest cricket story of the year.

Sneers Morgan has been laying into Cook on Twitter. All his followers have followed suit.
Wouldn't be surprised if Cook resigned as skipper.
