    If England win tomorrow, and win easily, the victory will be even more incredible than the NZ wins. It just doesn't seem possible to better the other chases but this will be something else.
    Just hope Bairstows form carries forward to the Hundred next month.

    Stokes's appointment as captain has had a massive influence of the team's mindset and the positive attitude of the batsman getting after the bowler at every opportunity seems to be working.

    Bairstow in particular has been playing one day shots and is in superb form, though it has to be said he has had a bit of fortune.

    I have to admit, I am not a big fan of white ball cricket but its introduction has got batsmen playing all kinds of shots with the players rewriting the test match batting manual.
    Out has gone the "don't give your wicket away cheaply".
    The improvisation brought in from the Twenty 20 form of the game, at the moment anyway, looks to be paying dividends.

    If England win today which seems highly likely it will be their highest total set to win ever.
    Question is, is this attitude sustainable in Test cricket?
