I bought a used Gray-Nicolls cricket bat today. Even though I know nothing about choosing them, I'm glad to know I compared my options in the same way Cookie did. Often with these things it's a gut feeling, and you just go for whichever feels the best. Like I say, I know nothing about cricket bats, but I know about guitars, and the exact same thought process applies :)
I agree... I've grown up watching Dravid,Tendulkar and Laxman do their magic.. I've backed Cook since his first test match for England and I really think that record is there for the taking
he says the best bowler he's faced last year is praveen kumar of india. he says "koooomaar" so that makes it a bit tough to understand. but he also says that he bowls slow and swings, so it's him
Sultan Shaik Thought he meant Bhuvneshwar Kumar, cos he was also swinging the ball across the lefties in England tour and he didnt have as much pace as he does now
got to say, for these batsman who get everything custom done for eg custom weight, edges, handle, and other changes, wats the point of trying out their bats, hes pretty much just going to shape it into his own one once he tells em the details he wants for his bat.
Didn't seem arrogant to me, both times when the guy in the back speaks he turns around and politely says 'pardon' to prompt the guy to repeat his question. All I see is normal human interactions.
@simoalley he actully uses gray nicolls, its people like ms dhoni and shahid afridi, dhoni uses SS tons, RNS larsons and Sg. afridi doesnt use only rarely boom boom he uses SS most of the time and all the indians with nike bats, look at the edges they all say SS TON or RNS
@sirvidia He's taken 3 of "the legend" to try them out but obviously in matches he's still using the oblivion. I'm going to get an oblivion and then I'll be just like Alastair Cook (This marketing tool has worked on me)
Hes not actually arrogant, one of the most humble players in the game atm.
i love Alastair cook most handsome British cricketer ❤⚘😌
Hi, you Marathi?

He's hardly arrogant, he said he hits it on the edge all the time. 295 vs India twice.. He is modest.
He has made 294 vs 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
In what way is he arrogant? He's choosing his bat and as infalmed says, when you're as good as him....
Would love to be let loose in the Gray Nicolls factory to pick my bats for next season. #lovegraynicolls
All the greatest sportsman aren't short of self confidence.
Alistair Cook picking his new edge hahahahha
I love you Alastair cook
Great man, great player,modest 👍
Cook is a nice bloke. I think he will go past Tendulkar's 51 test tons and test run aggregate; he has 25 tons already and is only 29.
I agree... I've grown up watching Dravid,Tendulkar and Laxman do their magic.. I've backed Cook since his first test match for England and I really think that record is there for the taking
bet you would take that back now
TheDd69er lol
Dhillon Not really , still possible.
Omg lol. I agree cook is a good reliable player but breaking tendulkars record is just...
He looks so handsome 💙
2:30 A.cook routine practice exercise right there :P .... lol just jokin
Cook the legend 🙏
seems like a nice guy Cook. i would like to bowl at him while he is still prime.
He’d spank you all over the park fella
I love the scoop bats so 1980s
asif n amir i just love when he said that...stand up for the champion.
feel sorry for cook.. after ashes whitewash... should come back.. great player
Yes
Best player
Alastair,an English legend
he says the best bowler he's faced last year is praveen kumar of india. he says "koooomaar" so that makes it a bit tough to understand. but he also says that he bowls slow and swings, so it's him
Sultan Shaik Thought he meant Bhuvneshwar Kumar, cos he was also swinging the ball across the lefties in England tour and he didnt have as much pace as he does now
some of my first memories of cricket were watching boonie play with a gray nicolls
cook has best bat
The old one had a crater worn into the sweet spot.
got to say, for these batsman who get everything custom done for eg custom weight, edges, handle, and other changes, wats the point of trying out their bats, hes pretty much just going to shape it into his own one once he tells em the details he wants for his bat.
Well, they got to know Ajmal pretty well.
Aw Alastair Cook is so hot omg
fuck u
rohan krish rai There's no need for that
Darth Immortallis haha :)
+Darth Immortallis you don't own anybody
Absolutely😍😍😍. If there were a beauty competition of some of the most handsome man, he would be one of the guys I would gladly choose.
seems a nice fella. and wasnt greedy with the bats. the amount of cricket he was about to be playing i think 4bats is justified.
Yeah but he is really from Essex, plays county for Essex too
Didn't seem arrogant to me, both times when the guy in the back speaks he turns around and politely says 'pardon' to prompt the guy to repeat his question. All I see is normal human interactions.
Hello do you have any bats that are two foot wide?
"oh ajmal" - looking back, 'oh ajmal' indeed... haha
CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT THE CONVERSATION IS BETWEEN THAT GUY AND COOK FROM 3: 18 AND 3.26????
Legend ❤️❤️
Is cook using the legend.
Nice bat
@simoalley he actully uses gray nicolls, its people like ms dhoni and shahid afridi, dhoni uses SS tons, RNS larsons and Sg.
afridi doesnt use only rarely boom boom he uses SS most of the time
and all the indians with nike bats, look at the edges they all say SS TON or RNS
Like when he said ''stupid batters'' it's just the handle for christs sake.
alastair cook come on the field.england z incomplete without ull
Who did he say was the toughest bowler?
Any more of these vids to come Gray nics ??
I like graynicolls bat...i also use it
Superman
You evidently don't watch much cricket. I suggest you listen to a few interviews from Cook, it doesn't take a genius to work out how humble he is.
who does he say was the toughest bowler he faced?
GOT him tons of tons in dubai
Knocking the bat well sir
Can you give gray Nicholls sticker
who did he say was the best bowler in the last year?
Who does he say is the best bowler he's faced this year?
which bat did he choose?
did they loose or win..??
dont
see the comments down.there is no one talking about this
who did he say is the toughest bowler he faced?
Hi Cook Daddy, (V BAT 100, likeing,) CD.Vazir ,
Hearing them talk about going to UAE and knowing the slaughter that happened XD
Why did you write afford in apostrophes?
I have 23 gray nicolls bat like this. Really
Oh please, I am dying to know what YOU would call it.. (please detect my sarcasm)
i wouldnt call it arrogance that he is showing
Graeme Swann makes bats aswell ?, lad!
@Zairychaudhary not aliester cook, alastair cook
i tried to clean my screen after seeing a bee.......did anyone else?
2:00. Tell that to Strauss
Except all betters get a bat maker to make them independently and then just chuck their sponsor's stickers on the generic bat.
Just the way he was ignoring the guy at the end and answering the other fella, bit rude.
Can I have a sponsorship pleaee
born in bedfordshire
aki co cooo ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Any one tell me, How people from Britan is differ from Americans???
That's what happens against Aussie ae snick and away you walk 2:30
din score any runs ne way .....
praveen kumar
Difference between arrogance and self confidence mate...This guy is more of the former.
don't get where all this arrogance chat has come from watching a video about Cooky choosing some bats...amateurs
aussies talking about Cooky being arrogant - best joke ever!
When you are as good at cricket as he is, I think you can afford to be.
@majinvegeta2007 preaveen kumar,,
What a knob! Good player though
Paveen kumar

@sirvidia He's taken 3 of "the legend" to try them out but obviously in matches he's still using the oblivion. I'm going to get an oblivion and then I'll be just like Alastair Cook (This marketing tool has worked on me)

Kookaburra is better

jealosy
@ildane you must be jealous.that he's a pro and your not poo head
