"Batting in these situations you have to look forward to the challenge: to enjoy the chance to bat all day, relish it like eating a good dinner or savouring a gorgeous glass of wine."
in other words be selfish..but in a different way.. the way he used to be.
he used to score a run in the first session and after tea he half hardheartedly scores another. Time used to stop when boycott was batting. He was one man army for destroying TRP. Bets were placed as to how long can you watch live telecast when he batted. Even the most patient lost to his. At one time there were less than hundred cricket viewers in england because of boycott.

Ken Barrington was even more defensive. I still remember the Madras test in 1963 when he played Bapu Nadkarni for a continuous 32 maiden overs which is a world record for maiden overs bowled in a test match.
