There is no hiding anywhere in a team when you are it's one shining star. The middle order is where MEN play. Pussies* play up front where the repercussions of their failures fall to others to rectify and where a good start is counted towards them as if idiots forget that ALL games are won at the end.Cook takes responsibility and leads from the front, AB hid in the middle order, funny how both AB's do that.
Cook is a great player. But give up this delusion that he will ever be better than Border. Cook inherited a team that had beaten, perhaps, the greatest Aussie team ever assembled and then led it to a 5-0 loss against one of the worst. Border kind of did the reverse against, perhaps, the greatest ever ANY team ever assembled. Who is leading from the front?
*Not all openers are pussies, nor is Cook. Just debunking the 'leading from front' delusion.
