It really feels like Ben Stokes and this England team are doing something far deeper than just winning games of cricket.
They’re combining the bravery and dynamism of T20 with the thrilling narrative of five day Tests.
We’re so lucky to be seeing it.

McCullum/Stokes changing the way test cricket is to be played. Courageous, fearless positive mindset gets them a win in Rawalpindi on the most docile surface. I don’t think any other team in world cricket would have rolled the dice like that.Bring on the Ashes next year.??

Imagine wanting to reduce test matches to 4 days from 5 days. This match is showing what a ridiculous idea that was ?

A good captain needs to be a mother, a nanny, a counsellor, a diplomat, a disciplinarian and a tactician. I knew from speaking with people involved that Stokes had many good qualities but his strategy in this Test was unbelievable. The man is box office with bat, ball and brain.
