[stephen cartwright]

Go on Shane lad. Very good patter that

 

[AB22 Easy Tiger]

Gower rambling and rambling like

Going to town on the IPL now.

What a test. What. A. Test.

 

[dangermows]

I'm dying my hair ginger.

 

[Chappers]

Up there with 81.

Better.

 

[Mr Redknapp]

Go on Shane lad. Very good patter that

What did he say mate?

Yeah. It’s a bit weird to be honest. He’s the host

Gold again for the cricket. Can we have a sub section in gold for this summer?

 

[The Great MES]

My god that was unbelievable. I thought the world cup would never be beaten but it just has. And and in time to watch the mags get stuffed

 

[bernardbresslaw]

Up there with 81.

Yep, just unreal that.

 

[stephen cartwright]

What did he say mate?

Said the best team wins in a test match. Very sporting and full of congrats for Ben.

No whinging about that lbw

 

[gowlcra]

Super special moment there and fanstastic even to watch it. Get on Stokesy lad one in a lifetime

 

[Mainze]

Let’s not forget Joel Sheldon Wilson’s part in all this.

Take a bow Sir

 

[CraigyLee]

Think that just about makes up for his first innings dismissal.

I'm going to get pissed as fuck.

That was lifting mind

 

[Hongkongphooey]

I am sorry I doubted the men in white sporting the three lions. An incredible comeback. The best test cricket I have ever seen.

After the first innings shambles you weren’t the only one mate, I thought it would be over yesterday.

 

[Steak Pie]

There's no point trying to describe that performance from Stokes, some things are just unbelievable.

What a game, from the ridiculous to the sublime. From a shambolic day 2, to the grit and determination of the fightback, to the absolute refusal to bend from one man. An all time great match.

1-1, The Ashes are there to be won. See you at Old Trafford.

 

[Comeback_Kenwyne]

Remarkable. Can't believe it. How do we keep finding these big moment, alpha male, hero all-rounders?

From Botham, to Flintoff to Stokes, the Aussies haven't managed to find a single one. Nor anyone really, Wasim Akram is about the closest anyone else has come.

 

[Charmless Man]

Warney will always back anyone with a bit of brilliance about them, regardless of nationality.

 

[viccarlton]

Privileged to have witnessed that, arise Sir Ben Stokes.

 

[Snappy]

After the first innings shambles you weren’t the only one mate, I thought it would be over yesterday.

Like another poster had said it's taken a special chap to do something incredibly special. I just hope they really take a look at the squad/ tactics before the next test.
