Do you love Alastair Cook?

[GotSpin]

I bet it wouldn't have been boring if Hussey or someone scored it back in Ashes 2006 or any other time he played for Aus, he'd of ****ing loved it.

Cook is seriously boring. Got nothing to do with nationality

 

[flibbertyjibber]

KP has got to be the most exciting player in the English team for the last 5 years or perhaps since he has debuted

Bell for me, just so good to watch when in full flow.

 

[Spikey]

Yeah Bell's so far ahead of the rest of the English batsmen it's kinda scary

Lol @ people laughing about Cook's "tedious to watch kinda play".... almost all nations would kill to get him in their team atm... such hypocrisy..

He makes runs.. and that only should count..

yes but
in the end it's just a game. you watch it for entertainment, not for going to sleep.

nah centurymaker the end game is to win...

and for fans to see their team win.

cookie's doing a bloody good job at that. I am divided within myself about his efficiency to come good in different pitches (read subc) but nobody can fault what's he doing atm...

WAG.

 

[Spikey]

i'm a fan of the game before any team though. I'll gladly take Australia never winning a game again if it means every game we're involved in is of high quality

 

[Son Of Coco]

You can pretty much be as boring as you want to be when you're scoring 294...it's when you're boring and scoring 10 that it starts to become a problem.

Cook's English, just in case nobody had noticed

Not sure about that I suppose I like a bit of audacious stroke play that only KP can provided in the English team. Became a huge fan of him since the time of Ashes 2005.

 

[Howe_zat]

Got no problem with people saying Cook's dull to watch. He is.

It's when people start confusing what they'd like to see with what England should do that's annoying.

 

[smash84]

awta

 

[hazsa19]

It isn't Cook's job to entertain you. It's his job to score runs and help the England cricket team.

If the Indian batsmen were doing their jobs we would have tighter Test Matches, and better entertainment.

Haha yeah. "Why haven't we declared yet?" syndrome.

Agree, much more entertaining than Bell, in fact Prior's better to watch imo than Bell.

What he was saying was bollocks in general and Cook can be as boring as he wants, when he's putting 294 on the board.

Anyone who can have Swann interested cannot be boring

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Yes.

He can take my wife off my hands any time he wants.

In comparison to Trott, I do..

I think him having Trott there sending everyone to sleep helps him get by unnoticed..
