Haha, I think it was only yesterday that someone tried to tell us all that Cook rubbish against spin, only had one gear and couldn't score quickly even if the bowling was poor. There goes that theory!

Which still suggests that Cook is quite capable of scoring quickly when bowlers bowl poorly - something that was refuted in the discussion I was referring to.

Oh, indeed, and I wholeheartedly agree (I just don't post "I agree" every time I do, remember?), any half-decent player will score quickly if you bowl enough bad deliveries at him.
The only thing that dictates typical pace of scoring is just exactly what is a bad delivery. A bad delivery to Adam Gilchrist is rather more wide-ranging than one to, say, Mark Richardson. But if you bowl enough at either, they WILL score quickly.

Nice to see Vaughan scoring a fifty (let's hope he goes on) but I find the ECB's inconsistency puzzling. Vaughan, Monty, Nixon playing this round, while KP, Flintoff, Saj Mahmood and Bell are not. Why not? Considering Flintoff's woeful batting form the ECB should be insisiting on him playing today (even just as a batsman if they don't want him bowling) and as for Mahmood he needs to learn how to bowl and you don't do that in the nets...

barring Monty, It's hardly inconsistent. Neither Vaughan or Nixon were involved in the Ashes series so are less in need of a rest.

Good to get Ramprakash pretty early - couple more wickets now and we'd be back in the game.
