I can accept most of that, but I'd prefer Curran to Bairstow and make Buttler keeper again, although he's not great.I'd go with Leach over either of them currently.
We're in a bit of an existential crisis point with our Test side, with several changes possibly needed.
Up top: Burns has justified his selection with his ton, plus we need to keep Roy in for now. Root should stay at 3, but I think Denly has been found wanting. With my Middx-tinted specs on I'd say to get Malan back in at 4, our best player in Australia last time and in scintillating form currently. Buttler needs to step up to remind us why we've picked him in the red ball game - getting out closing the face was symptomatic of his poor technique against the swinging ball.
I'd go with something like this:
Burns
Roy
Root
Malan
Bairstow
Stokes
Buttler
Woakes
Archer
Broad
Leach
