Interesting interview this morning when Piers Morgan spoke to Geoff Boycott about Alistair Cook's retirement. Boycott acknowledged that Cook had been a good opener for England and possessed a big heart, courage and bloody mindedness to occupy the position in the batting order.
Morgan then went on to ask him about Pieterson. Boycott said he could go on all day about him and that he'd not fullfilled his potential because he hadn't played with a captain that got a grip of him.
He went on to say that Brian Close would have taken him in the toilet, had a word with him and gave him a bunch of fives if needed!! :D
