Paul Collingwood 'amazed' by questions about Joe Root's captaincy
Paul Collingwood said he is amazed that questions are being asked about Joe Root's captaincy of the Test side and that the Yorkshireman is "desperate" to get the team back to winning ways. England have won just one of their last 17 Tests and the pressure has been mounting on Root following a 4-0 Ashes series defeat by Australia and a 1-0 loss in the West Indies. The results prompted former captains Michael Atherton, Michael Vaughan and Nasser Hussain to suggest it should be the end of the road for Root, who has signalled his desire to continue in the role.
