I mean what sort of defensive shot was that? It's not like Broad lacks test experience so never has to play a forward defensive. We've just imploded ourselves.
Well that was two halves to Stokes innings wasn't it? Astonishing stuff.
I do wonder if declaring might have given the Aussies the edge. Lower score encouraging the white ball shots rather than the middle of the innings stuff we saw, plus England wouldn't have had the boost of bowling them out.
I'd forgot about this, assuming England would collapse as predicted in here. Turned on sky to watch Newcastle match only to be greeted with Stokes screaming with bat held aloft.
To be honest with the way England have been playing, first thought was it was the highlights and he was celebrating getting to double figures...
