There aren't enough superlatives in the dictionary fo that innings.3 -
Stokes now 1/3 for spoty, started the day at 6/4 which is pretty much where he's been since the WC. just prior to the WC there was 50/1 available0

Having now stopped blubbing, I'd like to add that I'm SO proud to have seen a Kent man playing a significant part in winning this Test.
Well done, Joe. The platform that you & your namesake built for Stokesy & co to continue was of huge importance.
Long may you continue to enjoy success with England AND with your county.6 -

That was incredible.
I walked about 5 miles pacing up and down with nerves.
Amazing from Ben Stokes.1 -

Stokes hit 75 of the 76 runs needed...Must not forget the part Leach played either, even though he only scored 1...

Atherton summed it up well just now, it went from a match we shouldn't have lost after day 1 to a match we shouldn't have won this morning.

Anybody remember when @Leuth said Ben Stokes doesn't get into a world XI earlier this year.... :-)
That's absolutely astonishing what we've just witnessed.
I don't have the vocabulary to accurately describe that innings. That's no slight on me, though - there is no body on the planet who does.7 -

Ben Stokes may be the highest Test run scorer this year, but he's no James Hildreth...Addickted2TheReds said:Anybody remember when @Leuth said Ben Stokes doesn't get into a world XI earlier this year.... :-)

When he hit and ran for the run my first reaction was WTF, dont get cockyrina said:Stokes being interviewed by the BBC, asked about Leach's 1 not out

Certainly got away with it with that panic run which the Aussies dropped, the Stokes missed catch was when we won it though1 -
Incredible. Just incredible.
In 2005 for the Edgbaston test i was flying and England won whilst i was in the air, today i was also flying and also just landed thinking we had lost.
This weekend for me has been three events, three wins all by 1.
1 run on Feiday night, 1 goal yesterday and 1 wicket today - and yet in all three there were times i thought we wwre going to lose.
Cant wait to get home to watch the highlights and reactions0 -
Another strange thing is that i am also flying during the fourth Test.0
