    It was at that stage, I assure you. And, with S. Africa's best bowler off the field, that should have been the time to capitalise. Instead Cook prodded and nudged at the thing as though it were a live hand grenade. ****.

    A pitch does not deteriorate as quickly as that - clearly was difficult to bat on. Not like Cook isn't in good form

    A couple of hours earlier, Buvama and the nigh****chman had made comfortable progress, while de Kock was smashing it everywhere. There was nothing whatsoever wrong with the wicket.

    In form players struggling to time it suggests otherwise followed by huge collapses the next day. Clearly was playing up a bit by the time of the evening session

    Well, Gary Ballance was able to stay in on it despite being notably shíte. Ergo, there was nowt wrong with it. I can honestly assure you that there was nothing happening.

    Different era. This is a batsman-friendly time. No excuse for prodding about these days.

    Funny...you can find a lot of youtube clips of Boycott playing some pretty ugly shots. He isn't the prettiest to watch.

    That said, some of the wickets he is batting on look rather suspect.

    Either way....lets not criticise a batsman for scoring slowly. Its silly. Some of my best innings were my slowest.
