Magic from Root that.

 

Absolutely bailed England out 

 

Many years ago on Skunkers a poster (Nobby's Uncle) posted, "there's a young lad making his debut for Yorkshire 2nd XI today, he's my nephew, he'll play for England one day, he's special, he's called Joe Root". Wish I'd thrown a tenner on him to do just that and more.

 

Utterly breathtaking today, similar to that first day against the convicts when he was going like a train and Stokes fucking declared 🙄.

I’m back at work this week after a fairly lengthy break and they’re making me do day shifts for now. I was a bit annoyed by having to miss the start of this test until I checked the score when I finished at 8. Anyone got a very quick and concise summary for me?

That sounds suspiciously like something someone on ready to go might have made up.  Of course it would have had to include the other driver being from Bilbao and telling the mackem who wrote it that Sunderland are their very reason for being and that they hate all Geordies FTM.  Oh and the genocide etc.

That was class - still an incredibly daft/arrogant choice to bowl first but you cant complain when they win

Per the bbc, they've won 12 of 14 tests when they've had to chsse in 4th innings under Stokes and McCullum.

 

Also first team in Ist class history to win when other team has 5 centurions.
