LONDON (Reuters) - If Alastair Cook does not sort out his batting problems during the series against West Indies, the England captain's test future looks rather bleak, former batsman Nasser Hussain said.

Cook, who has not scored a test century since May 2013 when he notched up 130 against New Zealand at Headingley, was out for 13 in England's second innings against the West Indies in Antigua after scoring 11 in the first.
