I had to step away for a minute, but - Ben Stokes is a f***ing marvel, his performance today was excellent, one of the best ever, doing what he did today under the pressure he was under, was pure brilliance.

 

[stephen cartwright]

Didn’t Lyon blow a run out as well?

It’s hot today but my shirt is wringing wet watching that.

Warner man of the match

 

[Urban Silverback]

Well that was just f***ing unbelievably majestic. Think I'm dead.

 

[dangermows]

It's not like

Is like. It's happened.

 

[FatDrummer]

Come on England.
204 to win.
7 wickets in hand.
4th day wicket.
Play sensibly.....I have faith.

Easy this Cricket Pundit stuff.....

Gotta say I filled up when he hit the winning shot.
Quite simply the single most brilliant innings that I have ever seen.
Well done Ben Stokes - Durham & England

 

[wrighty]

I'd put the win on par with Headingley 81 ... but that was followed up with similar result starring Botham at Edgbaston and Old Trafford.

I was at Headingley for bothams hundred in 81 with my dad. We’ve just conferred and think today just pips it in our book but bloody hell what a game.
Test cricket is the best form of the game- the range of emotions today- over the four days- incredible.

 

[sonson]

Don’t think I’ve ever seen anything more amazing in sport tbh. In respect to the crucible of mental and physical strength and technique all coming together there’s nothing else I can think of compares really.

Gower rambling and rambling like

 

[dixonsafc]

Ben Stokes is the greatest cricketer have ever drawn breath.

 

[Chappers]

Fair play to Jack at the other end, too
