Yeah, and they've responded to that batting failure by dropping their opening batsman for Stuart Broad. That'll no doubt sure that batting right up.
As a kiwi the prospect of facing Shakib and a Pakistani left arm quick in the same attack has me concerned. Luckily there's only one kiwi in my batting unit, and he's a gun. Gutted Canes have Amir, otherwise I'd chuck 100 on Cook to bat for three days. As per usual, a hundy on the opposition.
