Cook: England must show 'hunger' in 2nd test

  • England cricket captain Alistair Cook looks ahead to the upcoming test match against South Africa at Cape Town on January 2nd December

    SOUNDBITE: (English), Alistair Cook:

    "Can we do it again? Can we have an Edgbaston-Trent Bridge fortnight and can we do that in Durban and Cape Town. The number of English people here, it is going to be a great Test match to be part of but we have to be careful we don't get carried away. As always, it took a lot out of us to win at Durban, we had to come through some tricky situations - 20, 30, 40 for three. There were times when we didn't quite get it right bowling and we managed to drag it back by I think absolute determination and skill. It is whether we have got that same hunger in us to do it again."

    SOUNDBITE: (English), Alastair Cook:

    "This ground, I have been reading that this is their real strong point, they got a great record here and they will be very keen to continue that. As I said I haven't looked at the wicket but it looks a pretty good one from up here. You can soon lose a toss and they've got some great batters that can score runs and we've got to be careful about that and we got to set the same standards as we set in Durban and we should be OK."
