If Stokes sees this through it would be one of those historic innings remembered for years

The they did this, so I had another couple of quid on

England To Win The 2nd Test & Ben Stokes To Score 100+ (2nd Innings) - Was 16/1 - Enhanced Odds
20/1

England 2.44 now. Get another ten runs without a loss and we’re probably favourites.

Win or lose I’m now officially a fan of Test cricket.

Apparently Broad said to Carey, 'That's all you'll be remembered for'.

Stokes has to stay there, cos tge rest can't get these runs. Just keep taking the easy single off the 4th or 5th ball and back Broad to stay there with him

So the docs have okayed that for you then?
Cue obit. for HB if Poms get up.

New ball due in 10 overs if we get that far

 

[Hammersmith bookie]

Think Broad could've got 2 there. Sent back by Stokes and 0 scored.

Yep. Bat till tea without too much risk and get that target lower.

This is perfect, just stay patient now. Cummins has lost the plot. Singles will do it, take a while but **** it

 

[rangercol]

**** me, it's the hope isn't it?!!

Plus, I reckon Broad could have a free swing at times.
