Wow Just give Stokes the captaincy with the MoTM award and the knighthood, + a BJ of his choosing.

Got to say, after day 2 I never thought England would win that..... Still had to make it too close!

Unbelievable stuff. There was some miraculous escape in those final few runs, but Stokes played one of the all time great innings there, digging in to start with and then a completely different knock with the tail, and deserved to get us over the line.

The football can only be an anti-climax after this whatever happens.

Gobsmacked.

Bothams Ashes has been doing the rounds for decades now, even though Willis’s bowling was incredible.

But this... This was all Stokes.

Unbelievable. That's why test cricket is without compare. I love football but you cannot beat when test cricket gets it right. Absolutely fantastic.

Just been sat sweating to death in my car outside the co-op. Couldn't risk leaving it for a few minutes after Stokesy assumed his ultimate form.

Outstanding bit of swordsmanship, Stokes was playing "text-book shot bingo" at one point. Tikaboo, son.
