I changed location and watched it upstairs.
Love Ben Stokes and his determined attitude - love how grumpy he gets when things don't go as he wants. Not sure how the previous LBW was missing over the stumps but it all came good in the end.

Rubbish England...should have won in 3 days! 
If you think that's a good performance, it gets better, my mate Razi owes me £50!

Rats !!! With Pakistan only needing 87 runs and 5 wickets in hand, I foolishly thought Pakistan had it covered, and allowed HID to persuade me that we needed to go shopping ...

That was a cracking watch! I had to convince my meeting participants that I was listening to a leadership business development call and not watching the Test Match on the iPad!

That was greater than the Willis/Botham Test win at Headingley which I also watched in 'real time'. Exceptional..... simply exceptional.
As good as the win at some 20 years ago by Hussain and Co, they were up against the light too.

Think Man of The Match could have been in no particular order: Jacks, Robinson, Brook, Anderson. There was a case for any of the 4.
Toss of a coin!
If I had said that on The Footie thread there would have been 6 pages of debate!

Left field here. Stokes was man of the match. Brook was amazing, Crawley too, but in very favourable conditions. Jack's had a good debut, Robinson and Anderson took their chance on day 5.
But this all hung on Stokes. Not just the aggressive batting, the attitude or the funky fields. It was the subtle stuff, like not using Anderson and Robinson much on day 2 to save them for the final push.
Some cricket brain.

Mention for Ollie Pope crouching behind the stumps for all those overs of spin, batting at three and diving catches. Not bad for a back up keeper!
another ODI start to the 2nd test from England

Five down at lunch on the first day. It's like the good old days, apart from the fact that back then we would have been 40-5 and now we've got over 170-5

Well, a disappointing end to the innings. But the last wicket partnership was entertaining.

Threw Bancroft under the bus…
No way none of the bowlers didn't knew. Always smelled a bit fishy at the time.
Warner, just a horrible little man a litany of discipline problem thought his time in the side.
