ALASTAIR COOK odds of being named Sports Personality of the Year have tumbled from 50/1 to 10/1 after a record-breaking farewell to international cricket.
England’s highest run scorer also became the fifth highest Test run scorer of all-time in an emotional win over India.
Punters have piled in on the 33-year-old to scoop the award as his odds have drastically shortened.
He finishes his England career with a mammoth 12472 runs to his name at an average of 45.35.
His highest score came against India in 2011, where he struck 294 at Edgbaston.
If Cook wins, it would be a similar to when Ryan Giggs claimed the award in 2009.

But Cook trails Olympian Dina Asher-Smith, England skipper Harry Kane and Tour De France winner Geraint Thomas.
Betfair Spokesperson Katie Baylis said: “Heading into the last test against India, Alistair Cook was 50/1 for SPOTY, but after his heroic last knock, we saw a flood of bets on The Chef and he’s been backed in to 10/1, behind Geraint Thomas who is the 6/4 favourite, Harry Kane at 2/1 and Dina Asher-Smith who is 7/1.”

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
