You mean the Stokes who scored 2 or 3 off 40 balls the eve before the Headingley miracle? The Stokes who has one of the two best forward defensives in the team?

Oh, you mean if the new Bazball Stokes can be sure that the team now get the script and he play with a mix of sense an aggression like he used to?

But yes, this is a bit un-English winning like this.

I remember 4 test series where both KP and Bell scored 2 Daddy tons each. Bit in 4 tests, YJB and Root have 3 eat, and an unbeaten 70/80 in a run-chase. If Pope had scored fewer or NZ more, that would be 4 in 4 for both.

PS Lees - yea or nay?
