    Well if test cricket is going to be like that... what a sport it will be... even on a truly crap wicket!

    Unbelievable captaincy from Ben Stokes, in one of England's best ever Test match wins according to all the pundits, and it was.

    That was defintely heart in mouth cricket for the last 10 mins trying to get that last wicket before it finishing due to the light - brilliant captaincy from Stokes though

    Well, at work, and I've bloody missed all that!!

    Enjoyed it over the weekend though. I thought it was an amazing declaration. We'll need to get used to this thinking! Basically Ben seemed to be saying, " Right, the only way we can win is if we give Pakistan at least an even chance, probably a favourites chance. But we'll have a go, and do it with half the bowlers unfit"

    Adtounding. I've never seen the like or heard of it. They are saving Test Cricket as we're watching. Every fan will want to watch this team.

    Just on watching the highlights. Absolutely loving Englands positivity.

    If we keep this up then this summers Ashes is going to be some series. Love to see England being aggressive against the convicts and getting stuck right into them.
