What a fantastic way for him to bow out as a test batsman with a century in his last match.

He’s going to be very difficult to replace.

Unusual way to score the ton....

Pushes a single collected by fielder who's throw back is over thrown and out over the boundary...

According to the TMS statto it’s the third time in his test career that Cook scored a 5.

Ah so he got the single... But would the over throw not be classed as extras...

I think it’s because the ball is still live until the ball is returned to the wicket keeper when it’s classed as dead. Therefore as the ball is live the extra runs are credited to the batsman.

Exactly. If the batsman hits the ball, they get the credit for all runs scored off that delivery.
