Great shame our national game wasn't on the British Broadcasting Corp

But yep - Simply amazing from Stokes and a 1 not out from Leach that he'll be dining out on for years :¬)

Not a fan of Stokes,but must admit that must be the best batting performance i have ever seen.

I’ve been watching cricket for 44 years and I’ve never seen a batsman adapt and survive like Ben Stokes today. Yes he rode his luck but you make your luck with application and determination. Well done Jack Leach for scoring one run and fending off the grenades being thrown at him. Best advert for the 5 day game which is my favourite by far.
