The same way that you can be 100-7 and still win, just as in the first test a week or so ago.Quote:

When they are dishing out awards I hope that Notts CCC get one for making it free entry and generating that atmosphere and the groundstaff for giving us a track that had something for both bat and ball.
What a start from Stokes and McCullum.
Incredible stuff.
It happens Paul. Can I remind you as a Glammy fan that in 2004 Essex scored 642 in their 1st innings at Chelmsford against us and lost

I was driving home from work listening on the radio. It sounded unbelievable but when I got in the house and watched the last 60 or so runs knocked off in no time,it was unbelievable. I’m definitely a cricket snob and always prefer the shots in the v rather than cowed over mid wicket, but just about all those boundaries today were superb. But those straight down the ground sixes Stokes hit had me purring.
You can’t beat test cricket, and this test was as good as it gets.
Fantastic test match , felt sorry for Marshall and Boult. The session this evening was incredible
I’d never seen hitting like that in test cricket. A friend of mine who knows cricket far better than me reckons that’s the only way Bairstow can play, regardless of format. Get at the bowler. No David Gower conservative play.
