When England win at home (albeit this is magnificent from Bairstow and Stokes) does that mean all the away failures get forgotten?

Well, there we go. England said they were going to go for the win,
and here is the proof of their pudding.
Ben Stokes salutes a rapt crowd as he marches back to the pavilion.
What a tremendous display from the skipper.
Second fiddle in spite of making 75 not out from 70 balls
as he ceded the post-tea stage to one of the most astonishing onslaughts
ever seen in Test cricket. Jonny Bairstow's 77-ball hundred
and 136 from 92 all told, tore this game from New Zealand's grasp,
just when it seemed that the massive wicket of Joe Root
was going to tip the game their way.

Hopefully England and their fans enjoy this win
I know they are tempted to see this as the first stage in the four year bigger target: to beat West Indies in the Caribbean
But let this win soak in first
