Former England skipper Michael Vaughan has termed the team's current situation as a 'soap opera'.
England suffered an early exit from the World Cup as they were knocked out in the pool stages, which lead to questions over coach Peter Moores.
Selectors have since been criticized by Alastair Cook for dropping him as one-day captain while also coming under pressure to clarify the international future of former batsman Kevin Pietersen, the BBC reported.
Vaughan said that if any producer is willing, make a movie, adding that they knew Cook was losing the job as one-day captain before he actually did, insisting that it is terrible management.
The former skipper said that there are leaks coming left, right and centre from the England and Wales Cricket Board, claiming that that has to stop.
Vaughan said that from what he is reading, he doesn't know if incoming ECB chief Colin Graves has spoken to Kevin Pietersen or not.
But, Vaughan said that Graves is coming in as chairman and he wants a blank canvas so he probably does want to speak with Pietersen because the sacked batsman has been a great player for England.
