Ben Stokes... what a great all round performance from the young man - 92, 101 (the fastest century at Lords in a Test Match!) and 3-38 (including Williamson and McCullum)
Broad has got him!!! Caught at THIRD MAN!!!! :clap:
ENGLAND WIN by 124 runs, and lead 1-0 in the two match 'series' :clap:
What a fantastic Test Match this has been... 5 days of entertainment, ebb and flow, and high quality individual performances.
Ben Stokes... what a great all round...
Phew... only just clipping leg stump. :clap2:
174-7 top 7 all gone... can England force the win with 23 overs to go??
What a terrific test match this is.
nearly Jimmy's 400th.. given out down the leg side... but reviewed immediately... and over-turned (noise was bat on pad, no sign of anything close to the ball).
Tea Day 5.... New Zealand 134-5, Wattling and Anderson have steadied the rocky ship.
36 overs in the final session, possibly under lights.
It's a big ask... but an early wicket or two, and who knows??
