Stokes using Warner to sell book - Paine

England all-rounder Ben Stokes is using Australia opener David Warner to sell his new book, says Australia captain Tim Paine.

Well, he wouldn't use Tim Paine to flog his book, would he. Unless he wanted the book to be "Mr. Average, a study of an unforgettably forgettable opponent."

So is Mr Paine implying that Stokes shouldn't have mentioned in his book what helped motivate him play one of the legendary innings in test history?
Thank anyway, Tim, for some further promotion for the book.

Hope it's a better read than his last book "Firestarter'. Got that as my Xmas stocking.

Isn't one of the attractions of sports autobiographies that they contain a lot of content on the author's opponents down the years? The sort of stuff people want to read about and all that.

Tim Paine is the wettest Aussie captain of all time. He can’t bat and is a shite glovesman as well. I’d be amazed if he’s still in the team for the next Ashes series.

Just think Tim, might not be mentioned at all had you not wasted your last review
