Cook's epic failure in Ashes series


Recommended Posts

Posted
10 innings with scores of 13, 50, 12, 8, 62, 0, 51, 22, 25, 34. Average 27.7 Is this the guy some people are saying will break Sachin's records ? :facepalm:
KP set him up nicely and overtook Cook, in terms of aggregate and average. I think KP wanted to say "I will beat Sachin's records".. he cleverly used Cook to make that statement :cantstop:

Oh yeah one bad series means he is shyte...of course
SA, Pak, NZ (home & away apart from a ton), pretty much proves its not just one bad series against good pace attack he has had in the past.

SA' date=' Pak, NZ (home & away apart from a ton), pretty much proves its not just one bad series against good pace attack he has had in the past.[/quote'] :two_thumbs_up: Checked his stats against SA/Pak/NZ/Aus.. Cook avgs just 40 with 11 100s from 53 matches, whereas overall he avgs 47 with 25 100's from 97 matches..clearly mediocre against good pace attacks

He relies a lot on scoring runs towards leg side. Stop bowling on legs and he struggles to rotate strike. The reason he did well against India was because our bowlers Ashwin, Bhajji and Ojha lacked control and bowled a lot on his pads and he always managed to pick a lot of singles. Jadeja could have kept it tight and put more pressure on him.

Dude scored 766 runs all by himself on his last tour of Australia. Did our top 7 batsmen score even 766 between themselves on our last tour of Australia?

2 good series against a mediocre Aussie attack (2010-11) and us at home.
How many batsmen have scored 700+ in a series in Australia and scored 3 100s in a series in India? Why not give credit where due?

Fab player but my point is he struggles badly against good pace attack.
