    Was that a 77 run partnership with Leach scoring 1? Nice one Stokes.

    That second last over will be replayed forever!

    LBW chance, run out chance, 6s and the fact Leach was left on strike to start what was the final over.

    Yep. Stokes hitting was phenomenal under the circumstances.

    He looked stuffed physically and mentally but found a way.

    What a finish. Stokes brings them back from the dead, Lyon drops the ashes with that botched run out, and the aussies needlessly blow a review only to need it shortly after when Stokes was trapped plumb in front

    An amazing test match all round with the ebbs and flow within it.

    Oz missed opportunities to win it for sure but the hitting from Stokes put pressure on the bowlers and fielders.

    One test match does not make a summer. What else has he done?

    That was a shocking LBW decision by the umpire. Looked plumb in real time. Should have given it and allowed the poms a chance to review. That's why you save your reviews I guess

    @canefan the only thing that I thought put it in doubt is in real time I thought it hit the front pad first which was slightly outside the line.

    Just woke up to that scoreboard. That's amazing, what an innings by Stokes.

    To show what a sportsman he is, should Stokes have reviewed the not-out LBW decision :face_with_stuck-out_tongue:

    Hard not to like the bloke (even though he is a turncoat who broke our hearts) - but geez he has had some luck.

    Amazing innings though love the way he plays his cricket.

    Caught by @Virgil 's fave Aussie.
