Cook says `too early in Ashes` for England to consider `axing` under-performing stars

Melbourne: England captain Alastair Cook has said that it is too early for England to consider axing some of their under-performing stars because it has just been one loss in the Ashes series.

According to a Newspaper, Cook revealed that England would be staying tight and denied his long-settled line-up was now under threat. He added that England has time to get away from it and to look at what they really need to improve. He further added that they all needed to be honest with each other as a group and not just with Jonathan Trott, Matt Prior or Graeme Swann.
