You have to take the good with the bad

Like Gayle or sewag (not that I'm saying he is in their class yet) other teams play those players as they will frustrate like hell then win the game out of no where

The longer Stokes plays and the more settled he is in the team, the more consistent he'll get. Especially if he can persuade England to stop dropping catches off his bowling all the time! Comfortably the most talented pace bowling all rounder in the world, hopefully England continue to back him and we see more and more great cricket as a result!

Could get a bit squeaky bum time for Pakistan here...

Is there a better fielder in the world at the moment as well? Apart from maybe AB and Maxwell, can't think of many who are in the same league.

Stokes could be the perfect all-rounder. Decent pace bowler, decent bat and top fielder! But need to keep him settled.

The Pakistan fix is on ;)

Unfortunately inwas thinking the same and had several texts saying it without me even mentioning it. Cheating isn't something people forget unless they really don't care.

Hmmm - at what point does this become bore-fest, non-result game and we stop flogging Broady and Jimmy into the ground?

At what point does the drs become a farce. How can England lose a review for that?

I'm sure it used to be that if on review you were out in any mode you were out

So out lbw but not out as ump gave it caught

Interesting shout on the lbw/ caught. Brave from an umpire to say my decision was so bad originally that I thought he was caught. So not out... even though he was out  :(

Ok I get it now

The lbw was not out so went with umpires call but if all 3 were out it would have been out

Confusing as hell though

I get the standard is very high but, with the keeper standing up and no crowd, it has the feel of a Sunday village game dragging on into the evening.
