The pictures above show Alastair Cook during his fine knock of 76 in England's 1st innings of the 3rd Test against South Africa
at Edgbaston, Birmingham in August 2008. Despite Cook's efforts South Africa went on to claim a 5 wicket victory to take an
unassailable 2-0 lead in the 4 match series. England, to their credit, did fight back well at The Oval with a 6 wicket win, Alastair
again impressive with the bat with innings of 39 and 67.
