Beefy and Ramiz Raja reflect on day one at Emirates Old Trafford
Friday 22 July 2016 21:00, UK
Alastair Cook now has 29 Test tons to his name - but how many will he end up with before he hangs up his bat?
Sir Ian Botham mulled over that question on the Sky Cricket Podcast following day one of England's second Test against Pakistan.

Botham was speaking after Cook made 105 from 172 balls in Manchester - and equalled the great Sir Don Bradman's number of Test-match centuries.
Beefy also reflected on Test cricket remaining the pinnacle of the sport, England's decision not to pick leg-spinner Adil Rashid, and the returns of key men James Anderson and Ben Stokes.
We also get the Pakistan viewpoint from Ramiz Raja, with the Sky expert discussing a taxing day for the tourists' bowlers and whether they suffered a hangover effect following victory at Lord's.
Plus, Beefy and Ramiz hail Joe Root, who was unbeaten on 141 at stumps.
