    Ben Stokes after all those boundaries is still calm enough to steer it into the gap for an easy 2.

    That is unbelievable clear thinking in this situation.

    Jack Leach cleans his glasses again. One ball to survive.

    Matt Taggart: Stokes and Leach reminds me a little bit of Danger Mouse and Penfold. (We found a pub after the movie finished).

    That's the 50 partnership as well. Now Ben Stokes, who looks like he can hardly walk, has run a sharp two.

    This is remarkable, remarkable sport.

    England need 19. Tim Paine looks scrambled.

    Fozzie: Hairs are standing up on the back of my neck. Stokes. Is. An. Absolute. Warrior. Not seen anything like this since Botham in 1981.

    Ben Stokes has reached a truly remarkable 100. Absolutely incredible hitting.

    Every single man, woman and child, English and Australian, are on their feet.

  13. 100 runs

    100 for Ben Stokespublished at 15:52 British Summer Time 25 August 2019

    My word! WHAT an innings from Ben Stokes. Almost three innings in one.

    He took about 50 balls to reach two and now he has flayed his way to another hundred to keep hopes of a miracle alive.

    He didn't even raise his bat.

    Jack Leach middles the last ball of the over. Safe as you like.
