Yes, that's definitely true. I was more replying to Suave who suggested that the players might find it boring, but somehow there ended up being two comments between us. “Plus, there would be no shame in getting thrashed by that West Indies side.”

Kyle Mills and Chris Martin are worthy, but it doesn't really feel like much of a treat watching them turn their arms over. Plus, there would be no shame in getting thrashed by that West Indies side.

England once played 9 out of 10 Tests against the West Indies in the early 1980's (the one-off Lord's Centenary Test broke the streak). Facing four of Marshall, Croft, Holding, Roberts, and Garner, nine Tests in a row. Australia once played the Windies in ten consecutive Tests. It could be worse.
