When you consider the bowlers, the support he had (minimal) the strokes he used, the form he had been before, the series position - already lost - and that he was an opener, and he carried his bat, this is probably one of the best innings ever.

Making big scores both in England and overseas, an average in the mid 40s (an allowance must be made for an England batsman who obviously has to play so much in English conditions), all major England batting records smashed. Definitely qualifies as a great. I’d say the only two genuine batting greats England have produced since Boycott are Gooch, Pietersen and Cook.
