Stokes catches Smith but his hand bits his leg and dislodged the ball. and it's raining straight after lunch.
Six from the final ball he faced ... wicket with the final ball he bowled. Thank you Stuart Broad. Legend.
Stuart, un-retire. Jimmy, retire. This great series has unfortunately shown that Jimmys' race is run, and that Stuart is still a top bowler. Stayed up until 1.30 am to see the finish. A moral England victory in the series as a whole.
Harry Brook cannot get into the England cup squad. Why, he is probably the best batsman out there. Just scored 105 in 42 balls in the 100.
it seems a strange decision! As much as I think Stokes is an excellent player and a talisman, I'd have loved him to have got his knee sorted rather than try to help
Yes, I find his decision to come out of one day retirement rather than getting his knee sorted strange, and dare I say it, selfish.
Battered NZ again. A sublime batting display led England to a crushing 95-run win over New Zealand in the second T20 at Old Trafford. Opener Jonny Bairstow hit an unbeaten 86 from 60 balls and Harry Brook struck a magnificent 67 from 36 as England posted 198-4. Fast bowler Gus Atkinson then took 4-20 on his international debut as New Zealand crumbled to 103 all out. The win gives England a 2-0 lead in the four-match series.
Massive win yesterday. Stokes new record, bowlers good as a unit. One more game before the world cup. Edit:- Plus three against Ireland of course. My bad.
