velu Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Clueless against ashwin. Clueless against ishanth. Probably englands ka one of the greats. PS:- Cook is averaging 45 with SR 47 in tests. Dhoni is averaging 38 with SR 59 in tests. ESPNs EMII indicator for cook is 45 + 47 = 92 ESPNs EMII indicator for Dhoni is 38 + 59 = 97 Dhoni's batting in tests > the best england test opener ever Switchblade and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1 Link to comment
Turning_track Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 (edited) I'm not sure if he is going to play the next test, there were reports about his child being born so he could be relieved from his duties. But definitely among the contemporary greats. Edited August 23, 2018 by Turning_track UrmiSinhaRay and velu 1 1 Link to comment

rtmohanlal Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Seems it is a permanent down fall for Cook unless something extra ordinary happens.It also shows as to how tough it is to maintain high level of performance over longer periods of time. This guy,Pujara ,Vijay etc are struggling in the only format they are playing... velu 1 Link to comment

Cook still has a slight chance... but for that he needs to hit top gear at the earliest. But if he continues with the current form even till the end of this series, I am afraid it would even be curtains for him. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
