"This Is What You Get Paid For": Australia Great Tears Into Alastair Cook For Defending Bazball

Former Australia player Mark Waugh heavily criticised ex-England player Alastair Cook for defending Ben Stokes and Co. despite their poor show in India during the five-match Test series. "There's a little bit of the human element that comes into it. We all sit here now away from the emotions of the game. We sit here at home watching tele (TV). I am not defending England, but they have been away for getting on to eight weeks. It's a tough tour; they're not robots. I am not defending their performance but there is human element of wanting to get home and to get out of pressure," said Cook during his analysis on TNT Sports.

'Struggled At 5th Position': Ex-England Captain Points Out Flaw In Ravindra Jadeja's Batting

Former England captain Alastair Cook criticised the batting of India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja after the player failed to play a noticeable knock in the Ranchi Test. Jadeja, who batted at number 5 ahead of Sarfaraz Khan and Dhruv Jurel in both innings against England, failed to help the team's cause by returning scores of run-a-ball 12 and 4 off 33. Cook opined that the India star finds it hard to maintain a balance between attack and defence whenever he bats at the number 5 spot.

"Take Bairstow Out Of Firing Line": Cook Urges England To Bench The Out-Of-Form Batter

Former captain Alastair Cook has urged England to drop wicketkeeper-batter Jonny Bairstow from the Ranchi Test against India, to "protect the player" who is having an abysmal series. Bairstow, who is playing as a specialist batter, has endured a woeful run in the ongoing five-match series. He is averaging 17.00 having registered scores of 0, 4, 25, 26, 37 and 10 in six innings. "I'm taking him out of the firing line to protect the player, as I think he's had a tough tour so far and India is a tough place to keep going on the treadmill," Cook told 'TNT Sport'.

On England Great's 'Deliberate Ploy' Dig, Ravichandran Ashwin Gives Epic Response

India all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin received a five-run penalty for running over the protected area of the pitch on Day 2 of the ongoing third Test against England. As a result, the visitors started their first innings on 5 for no loss. However, former England captain Alastair Cook questioned Ashwin's gamesmanship, saying that it was a "deliberate ploy" by Ashwin to gain an advantage during his bowling stint. "Is it deliberate? Yes, it is. It's a tactical ploy that you can disturb the middle of the wicket because Ashwin wants as much help [as possible] when he can bowl," Cook had said on TNT Sports, the official broadcasters of the series in the UK.

"Lack Of Match Preparation": England Great Worries For Ben Stokes And Co Ahead Of India Tests

England's "lack of match preparation" in India ahead of the gruelling five-Test series could be a "problem" but the team can bank on its 'Bazball' approach to upstage Rohit Sharma and his men, feels Alastair Cook, who led the Englishmen to a memorable Test triumph in the country back in 2012. Having opted for a month-long training camp in 'subcontinent-like conditions' of Abu Dhabi, Ben Stokes and Co. arrived in Hyderabad on Sunday, just four days before the opening Test on Thursday.

After retiring from international duty in 2018, he carried on playing for Essex and won the County Championship in 2019. However, his contract expired at the end of the recently completed domestic season and Cook has decided against playing on. "It is not easy to say goodbye," Cook said in a statement. "For more than two decades, cricket has been so much more than my job.
