Incredible. Just incredible. In 2005 for the Edgbaston test i was flying and England won whilst i was in the air, today i was also flying and also just landed thinking we had lost.
This weekend for me has been three events, three wins all by 1. 1 run on Feiday night, 1 goal yesterday and 1 wicket today - and yet in all three there were times i thought we wwre going to lose. Cant wait to get home to watch the highlights and reactions

There aren't enough superlatives in the dictionary fo that innings.
Well done, Joe. The platform that you & your namesake built for Stokesy & co to continue was of huge importance.
Long may you continue to enjoy success with England AND with your county.
'he's got serious bollocks to stand up and do that'
I walked about 5 miles pacing up and down with nerves.
Amazing from Ben Stokes.

That's absolutely astonishing what we've just witnessed.
I don't have the vocabulary to accurately describe that innings. That's no slight on me, though - there is no body on the planet who does.
Certainly got away with it with that panic run which the Aussies dropped, the Stokes missed catch was when we won it though
