    Thought I'd let Ben Stokes play himself in, then wake up in time for the fireworks. The way the wicket is playing, I think he'll have to attack, so it should be fun.

    Joe Root, 3 scores of 150 plus in the last 3 test matches. Impressive or what :)

    Just 9 runs in the last 6 overs is a bit of a rut when we've so many runs and wickets left. Stokes showed how easy runs are to come by on that pitch.

    Stokes always makes it look easy though.

    I set my alarm , then cat napped during lunch and now feel wide awake. Stokes was great, just a shame he couldn't have stuck around a bit longer

    I felt yukky yesterday with getting up so early then sleeping for the lunch session plus an hour, then up again. I just thought I’d get up when I woke up today. Typical that I missed Stokes having fun. Oh well...

    Love that smile! A six to reach his double century, I think he's enjoying himself!
