The Ashes series has been a dud, but Alastair Cook has now claimed a pretty incredible record in the fourth test:
Had the work TV on it all day. What an innings, to stand out there in front of 90,000 opposing fans and take on some of the best bowlers and fielders in the world, face more than 400 deliveries and hardly make any mistakes. One of the best Test innings I've seen in my short time as a cricket fan. Now that the series has already been decided England finally looking like they might win one.
