England's spin department is under close review as the team balances attacking intent with control on slower overseas pitches.
Coaches want at least one spinner capable of holding an end through long sessions while still offering wicket-taking variations in the second innings.
Net sessions have emphasised longer spells, altered seam positions, and closer communication with captains about when to attack versus contain.
The management insists the final XI will remain condition-based, leaving room for an extra seamer if pitches offer early movement.
