Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  E kī ana a Alastair Cook he 'whakahou' i a ia i te wā hararei o tēnei hotoke i te kāinga i te pāmu. Ka taea e Ingarangi anake te tumanako kua whai hua to ratou rangatira Whakamatau, na te mea ka taea e ia te tatari kia iti te wa mo te toenga o tenei tau ki te whakahoki mai i taua momo tirohanga. Kua kite kē a Cook i ngā mea e haere mai ana, i te tuatahi i roto i ngā whakamātautau e toru o te Karipiana i tēnei marama, kātahi i tētahi mahi tino uaua i te kāinga ki Aotearoa, i mua i te whakamātau a Ingarangi i tēnei raumati ki te whakahoki mai i te kapa Ashes i ngaro 5-0 i raro i tana rangatira i te tau 2013-14. Kei te whakangungu te rangatira o Ingarangi a Alastair Cook i Basseterre i te wā e whakarite ana tana kapa mō te raupapa whakamātautau o West Indies. E kōrero ana a Cook ki ngā pāpāho i Warner Park i Basseterre i mua i ngā whakamātautau Karipiana o Ingarangi. Ko Cook (matau) rāua ko Jonathan Trott e haere ana ki waho ki te mahi whatunga i te wā e whakarite ana a Ingarangi mō tā rātau raupapa.

I a Cook, Moores me o raatau hoa mahi me o raatau hoa whakahaere i huihui ano ki te Taunga Rererangi o Gatwick i te Taite, ko te mahi tuatahi a te rangatira ko te uiui i nga kaupapa e kore e mutu wawe. I eke ia ki te 79 i roto i ana whiringa Whakamatau whakamutunga, he waahanga o te wikitoria whanui me te tuatoru o nga wikitoria i te kaainga ki Inia i te raumati kua hipa, a ka waiho hei kaihauturu rekoata mo te heke mai ka taea te kite hei rangatira nui rawa atu o Ingarangi. Heoi anō, ko Cook anō, nāna i whakamōhio mai e kore e whai pānga aua kōrero ina haere atu ia ki te whakatuwhera i ngā whiringa toa mō tōna whenua.

Ka tīmata a Ingarangi i tā rātau haerenga ki West Indies i Saint Kitts i te Mane. E mea ana a Kapene Alastair Cook kei te 'whakahōu' ia i te wā hararei hotoke i te kāinga.

Ka tūtaki a Ingarangi ki a Aotearoa me Ahitereiria i te kāinga i te mutunga o tēnei raumati.
