Dynamic. Just like Ben Stokes fantastic innings.

Fantastic wasn’t it? I was out earlier but just watched the replay. Nice tribute Jim.

I'm delighted (I think I heard on the news this morning that he is NZ born?). Great sense of movement Jim. I have all fingers crossed for England to retain the Ashes.

Thanks Timothy, Stephen, Tessa and Sandra for the comments. Twas indeed a great day's cricket. Ben was indeed born in N.Z and came here at 12. He has some Maori ancestry..

Love this one Jim, it's a smasher, 😀

Good action shot there Jim.

Thanks you Linda and Carole.

Love the energy and movement!

Cheers Fred, cricket is back in general favour and not before time. Can't wait for the next test.
