Correct, there's a fair difference in the IQ of Alistair Cook to that of David Warner.

I agree. After 2000 and something days, he had every right to. He didn't. He showed decorum. Good on him. I have a lot of respect for the guy now. Warner carried on like a tool on day 1 after being lucky on 99.

Agree 100%, Cook showed class with the bat and his demeanor.

He has the same routine every time - that's just how he celebrates his milestone and there's nothing wrong with that

It's one thing to express your delight but Warner goes way to far.

Cook today and Marsh in Adelaide you really were happy for them both under pressure to perform effectively almost both playing for there careers and handled themselves with class.

Yep. Warner had no right to carry on like that.
And following on from Daisys post, Warner really doesnt go on with it once he gets to 100.

Bill Lawry was commentating today about Cook being the most prolific batsman of the last 10 years, it got me doing some research. The list of most test runs from the 27th of December 2007 and the leading run scorers of the 2010s-

Unsure the relevants? Sorta like west coke going through more cocaine than Colombia or Ben Cousins being a criminal. It’s not relevant.

It’s a matter of opinion, that’s all it is.

And how slow did Warner walk off the ground after being dismissed?
Just moped off as if to lap up the extra attention of the applause :roll:
Smith passed Warner almost half way out on the ground so slow he was to get off.

Helicopter my vision is just fine... Very rich a west coast supporter saying “seeing what you want to see”.
Goodes has nothing to do with this.

He's prone to concentration lapses. The shot he got out to on 99 was a great example of that.
