Captain
Cook masterminded his Timing and Batting
They
say class is permanent and form may have temporary setbacks.
Two
examples are Mahela and Sanga.
They
go through patches of bad form but when they come back, they come
back in style.
I
think Cook as a batsman is a Class Act.
He
knows it and poor English commentators should “Eat the humble Pie,
NOW.
What
the selectors should do is to find him a partner, and possibly make
him come, one down.
One
does not send the best batman to guillotine, first up especially when
the guy is out of form.
There
is a lot to learn from Mahela and Suaga.
Not
only they are friends but complement each other.
Poor
Captain Cook does not have good pal to comfort him in the thick of
things and in the field.
I am
writing this before he gets his ton.
Whether
he gets his ton or not, Iwil always watch him play.
I say
you won't see a guy like Mahela for another 20 years but watch him
play all the “wrist-ky” play for a few moments, even he makes
only 30 runs.
This
phrase is applied to Sanga too, but with a little revision, watch
when you are in 70 to 80 and do not get out to a part time baller.
Getting
run out, I do not blame.
Your
legs are “achy backy” at thirties.
The
last phrase applies to Captain Cook, too.
Do not
let him run a lot.
He is
a big guy unlike Mahela and Sanga, and has to carry a Big Frame on
his legs.
