England captain Alastair Cook has said criticism of his leadership style from the Australian camp is of little consequence to him and his team.

England head into this week’s final Ashes Test at The Oval on the brink of an unprecedented 4-0 home win against Australia, but some pundits, and Shane Warne in particular, have derided Cook’s decision making.

“I’d much rather be in my position getting criticised for my captaincy and being 3-0, make no mistake about that,” Cook said.

“He (Warne) might genuinely believe that. The beauty of cricket is, as we always know, there is a lot of different ways to skin the cat.”
