He'll get between 40-50. He probably won't be considered one of the greats but he should be.

Great achievement for Cooky, proves he's our best bat now too, IMHO. Certainly will massacre all England records.

Fair play to Captain Cook then. 5 tons in his first 5 tests as captain. Unprecedented, surely?
