Presenting... the FoxCricket Team of the Decade! 📝:
People often forget just how good Cook was for the first half of this decade because of the decline over the last few years. No one scored more runs in the 2010s than Cook, who averaged more than 45 as opener in the seaming conditions of England. His two best series coincided with England’s two best wins of the decade. In the 2010 Ashes he averaged 127.66, scoring three centuries to help England to the rarest of series wins in Australia.
Well, almost everywhere – he only managed 14 in his lone Test in Bangladesh, come on, Virat. Alongside Smith, he announced himself in the 2014-15 Border-Gavaskar series, scoring four centuries in four Tests. The battle between Smith and Kohli would go on for the remainder of the decade. Like his contemporaries this decade – Smith and Kane Williamson – Kohli seems to still be improving. That’s a scary thought for bowlers around the world going into a new decade.
