If someone hits a double ton against my team and the skipper drags me out of slip to chuck (literally chuck) a few offies out of desperation and I get him caught at deep mid wicket I will claim that victory

The most praise Andile Phehlukwayo's bowling has ever got hahaha. But seriously great innings by Kohli. To me it doesn't matter how "lucky" a batsman is, a match winning innings doesn't have to be a chance less one. England had the opportunity to be well ahead in this game.Anderson is always going to trouble him, or any other batsman ever, if he bowls as well as he did yesterday. Sometimes you just have to give credit to the other guy.
I'm not going off this innings alone, which had a big dollop of luck, but Kohli has made runs when the ball swings, as much as people may want to convince you otherwise. e.g. Jo'burg 2013. England 2014 was just a bad run of form for him. Even earlier this year in the 3rd Test vs. SA, he made 100 runs in some of the toughest batting conditions you will ever see. And there was no weak link in that SA attack, unlike Broad yesterday. If Broad had been at his best, India would not have crossed 100.
He is nowhere near what he was but seeing the conveyor belt of mediocrity we have tried since Strauss retired alongside him then it would be foolish to dump our leading scorer ever and give us 2 numpties. He does occasionally get a good score and that isn't good enough but not like we have lots of options to replace him.Yeah Cook has been done for a while in my opinion. Many many failures followed by one good score in probably a dead match on a perfect pitch with a guy missing who’s had you on toast. For a guy that’s supposed to have a safe pair of hands whenever he takes a dolly he sure shells a lot of catches.
He will probably get a hundred nexts week on a flat deck with no spin and no movement and I’m sure that’ll be Cook back to his best and all the doubters are wrong.
Not sure who would say that tbh. I can't say I've seen anyone (on here at least) backing Cook like that......I'm probably up there with his biggest fanbois and I even I know he's done.He will probably get a hundred nexts week on a flat deck with no spin and no movement and I’m sure that’ll be Cook back to his best and all the doubters are wrong.
If there's one thing you can count on it's Indian bowlers trying their best to bring batsman back into form.Not sure who would say that tbh. I can't say I've seen anyone (on here at least) backing Cook like that......I'm probably up there with his biggest fanbois and I even I know he's done.
But there's a couple of things to think about here. Say he does score a ton next week on a flat deck........we'll I'm not seeing too many of the rest of the top order doing that. The last 100 we've had out of out top 5 was Cook's 244 at the MCG........sure flat deck, oppos best bowler out etc........no other **** managed it though did they?
And second, seriously.....who can replace him? If we had blokes knocking the the door down for top order batting spots then sure.......time to hang up the boots Chef. But FMD, we've been trying for 6 years to find a replacement for Strauss with no success, how the hell can we replace Cook right now?
He is well past his best......we all know that, but I think right now he is doing a great service to his country by hanging in there.
Nah, England wins the Ashes easy again next year if Patto is still injured. Quote meI’d rather see them blood a new batsman. What happens when Starc, Cummins, Hazlewood, Pattinson come over next year? They’ll be laughing! He’s never been able to play decent quicks well and I’d much rather see England prepare now because the signs he is depleting are there.
Ah the fabled four, when was the last time Australia played 4 frontline quicks over 5 tests, what about goat?What happens when Starc, Cummins, Hazlewood, Pattinson come over next year?
