Just curious what others do, so for example my 2 openers for england have been amazing all season scoring bucketload of runs, the start of new calendar they're both so out of form and cant score a run for there counties, do you still pick them out of loyalty like its real life or not lol

Completely agree.
Drop them.
Bringing in a worse player in good form will almost always work out in the short term. They might only give you no more than couple of decent matches but that's fine, soon enough your top players will get back into form anyway.
How do other people turn around a batsman's form? Or attempt to at least?
Personally if their form is under 40% I won't push a batsman over 2 bars aggression until they reach 50 in a FC game. Once they do that their form tends to make it's way up. If that doesn't work I turn to another player.

An old cliché in cricket is "form is temporary, class is permanent". This has always been true in the (International) Cricket Captain series of games. I'm not sure if user manuals are still released, but you can find this tip in all of the old manuals.
Don’t drop your best players just because they’ve had a couple of bad scores - an excellent player out of form is better than a poor player in form.

For example, you can find it on p. 19 of the CC 2013 User Manual.
Joe Root scoring 20s but capable of averaging 50 over the entire season is an objectively better player over the season than than Billy Root scoring 40s but capable of only averaging 30 over the season but your immediate need is for a player scoring 40, not 20. Use that player but be ruthless, as soon as he posts two scores at his career average, drop him.
