Stokes can't finish this without eventually being caught on the boundary.

He had quite clearly taken several strides down the pitch, then realises he's been caught out of his ground and tries to retreat to the crease. Fundamentally different scenario to Bairstow stood in his crease clearly thinking the ball was dead.
You see what you want to see though!
For sure he should already be out
Still class viewing though after some pathetic effort earlier in the innings, be unreal if he pulls out a win

Nice try.
Amazed Smith didn't try and claim the first dropped catch was out with the way the Aussies are going this match.
Stokes ain't lasting long at this rate though
He isnt triggered hes taking the mickey.Can't see England losing from this point.
Hahah, Broad is so triggered by this, it's hilarious.

Australia are making a right **** of this. You can’t tell me this is better than bowling full. The whole short ball tactic was predicated on it slowing the scoring rate.
Feels like if one goes they’ll tumble, obviously if it’s Stokes they’re done but could make the rest of the series great if they manage it

Broad’s made 169 (?) at Lords so there is still hope even if Stokes goes.

This Ashes series just keeps giving

Stokes has balls of steel, it must be said.
Caporegime
Don't make me start to hope Ben.
Soldato
Believe!
I am not hoping yet. Just enjoying the show.
Definitely not hoping. We have lost this game.

Well, I've seen enough. England will win the match. Gotta give Stokes credit for his incredible batting, I've rarely seen anything like it.
