An 'I didn't know that' incident. Moeen Ali caught out, but not out on appeal as it hit the helmet of the catcher.

Really tough pitch to bat on. Good practice for India.

Stokes just got a 6....blooming miracle today.

98-5 Lead by 143 runs. Interesting to speculate what is a good score. 200 would give the bowlers something to work with....250 would be good. Still a way to go yet.

Lead 153 at tea.

Whack! 6 more for Stokes and an excellent 50.

 

[tomw24]

Stokes has been superb with bat and ball today.

Our batting all the way down the order is our strength...completely necessary when you consider the performance of our openers.
