X2

Looks a very solid test opener.

Almost a right handed Cook, doesn't have any glaring weaknesses, plays to all parts of the oval, is very patient!

Comes into the side averaging 44 in county cricket, that's not overly outstanding over there so the selectors must really like his texhnique and attitude.

Got on Cook @ $3.70 for England highest first innings score.

Looking good so far, only issue is if England declare the bet becomes a 'no bet' by my understanding.

Cook gets his 100

By doing this he has now hit his 23rd Test hundred the most by ANY Englishmen ever.

Also in the 5 tests he has been captain he has hit 5 100's!

It says something about if the innings is forfeited than the bet becomes a 'no bet'

I can only gather 'forfeit' means 'declare' I could be wrong, I hope I'm wrong

I can't handle listening to the commentary. All you hear is how good Cook is, Sunil Gavaskar said that he is already a better batsman than he was !!!
And if you look at Cooks and Clarkes stats they are very similar

x2. I dislike alot of English cricketers but Cook is one guy I don't mind.

Cook has now scores more hundreds in Asia than any other Non-Asia player. He has scored seven hundreds from 14 matches.

Must say it is nice to watch a test match and when the umpire makes a decision it's final, no standing around, batsmen getting called back!

Real brain fade that. WTF was he thinking ? #-o #-o
Surely you'd think about grounding your bat b4 your personal safety?
Thing is that if he had grounded his bat and then lifted it up he would've been NOT out despite being out of his crease.
