May as well, its our bowlers + Bairstow who are bailing us out every match ffs.
Also I'd much prefer Robson come in before Borthwick, as he has prior test experience, and has only done a little bit worse than Borthwick this season so far, so I'd expect him to perform better from the get go, giving us less headaches trying to get a decent top order together, then I'd get Borthwick in for Vince at 5 when Vince eventually fails.
I'd give Vince until the second Pakistan test, as that'd be 8 innings, and if he doesn't make a score at all in any of them I think it's fair to drop him, plus having a form bat come in at 5 who hasn't had test experience before gives more protection to let them get a good start and confidence at this level, before we inevitably **** about with the batting again.
