    Problem is, Stokes already has as many as he scored at Headingley, and we still need another 92!

    I'm helping by not saying how well Stokes is doing!

    I look at it this way, we all know a bowler can run out a batsman for backing up but they very rarely do and certainly not without a warning first.

    True, and the more I think on it the more I think they should have withdrawn the appeal.

    Australia should've withdrawn the appeal for me. It was within the laws of the game to do so but very unsportsmanlike. If England did the same I'd be equally disappointed.

    Bairstow was a fool for giving them the opportunity to do it though.

    Patience rewarded there for the Aussies, but huge well done to Ben Stokes!

    Fantastic innings from Ben Stokes, I think that'll he curtains though I can't see the tail getting 70 runs that are required to win.

    Expect us to add another 20 runs at the most.

    We'll collapse now sadly. Good work Stokes though...

    This game was lost in the first innings. 180/1 to conceding a lead of 90 was awful play. Excellent innings by Stokes, but probably should’ve trusted Broad a bit more and took some more singles once they started bowling wide of off stump.

    Our batters have let us down.

    Bairstow aside it shouldn't be decided on his wicket. So leave off him
