Baker will always remember that over when he got to bowl to the England test captain

 

[brandon]

Absolutely no words. F*ck me. Drink it in lads and lasses!

Lunch:

Durham 549-5 (123 overs)

Bedingham 119* (157 balls)
Stokes 147* (82 balls)

Partnership is worth 189 from just 148 balls.

 

[Steak Pie]

210/1 off 27 overs in the session.

We can forgive them the slow over rate.

 

[Liverpool Beachball]

Hope he avenges Lara’s 501

 

[brandon]

Declare on 1000 at stumps tonight with stokes on 600 from 212 balls.

He’d have to block for half an hour to get there that slowly man

210/1 off 27 overs in the session.

We can forgive them the slow over rate.

Absolutely insane that like

 

[East Riding Mackem]

Absolutely mad watching that - needs one more 6 to equal highest number hit in an FC innings in England and he's only faced 80 odd balls

 

[Monument View]

Cracking entertainment in last hour as Ben bashes Worcs

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

Ben Stokes scores our fastest First-class century off 64 balls, hits 15 sixes - five in one over - and goes to lunch 147* off 82 balls

Stokes needs 1 maximum to equal symonds county record and 2 to break it....

That's insane

An extra bonus is that pitches in Worcestershire in May tend to be exact replicas of those in Australia at the height of summer

 

[The Red Telephone]

Privilege to watch that session of cricket.

There was supposed to be a trip to Worcester with the Travel Club for this game but it was cancelled as they couldn't get the numbers to go!

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

Just wow

As you well know (expletives)

 

[I am Boss]

Poor Bedders. Hitting a century @ 75 SR and no one will mention it

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

apparently stokes is 5 6s away from the most in a county championship season............

 

[brandon]

Ben Stokes scores our fastest First-class century off 64 balls, hits 15 sixes - five in one over - and goes to lunch 147* off 82 balls

Interesting stats on commentary too, incase anyone missed them.

Two more sixes and he creates a new world record for sixes in a First Class innings.

Five more sixes and he sets a new record for sixes in a SEASON by a Durham batsman. John Morris with 19 is the current record holder.

 

[thewearsider]

Bedingham class at one end, Stokes flicking sixes at the other, over 200 in session and nearly saw history. It doesnt get any better.
Leaving Worcester now to get back home for the match.

Aye, beat me to it
