3rd Test at Headingley, Leeds

[Maximas]

Remember when Stokes was 3 off 80?

 

[morgieb]

If he can have a go at Leach he bowls another

Yeah that's what I'd do. Giving him a chance at Leach works but we can't afford 15 run overs.

 

[halba]

this is going to be within 10 runs i feel.

 

[Burgey]

Imagine if Stokes pulls this off after his heroics at the WC final

stuff of legends

c'mon Leach hang in there

If he does what he did in the WC final it’ll be a tie

 

[ajdude]

four balls at leach now ooooooooh i bet they're all short

 

[stephen]

Such good stuff this.

 

[Burgey]

Is that the name of Leach’s accounting firm on the toe of his bat?

 

[stephen]

Listen to that crowd.

 

[cnerd123]

four balls at leach now ooooooooh i bet they're all short

gotta go for a yorker at some point surely

 

[TheJediBrah]

****ing Stokes this bloke should be in prison what a player tho! Defs winning me over

 

[TestMatch]

Leach's heart must be pounding.

 

[morgieb]

Disappointed to see no yorker.

This is a good combo for England I think. Stokes is the one person that fires up when the going gets tough and Leach while not good with the bat won't give anything away.

 

[TheJediBrah]

Pretty **** from Patto there. Slow, short and no swing at all.

 

[Burgey]

I think I’d go Cummins up the hill and Haze from Patto’s end when he’s done.

 

[stephen]

Cummins on yeah!

 

[cnerd123]

this crowd is great

imagine if England get within 20 of this target

 

[NUFAN]

Hmm.. Not the best from Patto there. Not horrible, but didnt look too difficult to face.

 

[stephen]

Pretty **** from Patto there. Slow, short and no swing at all.

91 mph is slow?

 

[Maximas]

Stokes can probably afford to give Leach 2-3 balls to face at a time if convenient, he's solid.

Stokes will get caught on the boundary before he eeks out another 50 runs surely

 

[TheJediBrah]

Looks like beautiful batting conditions out there though. Poms should never have let it get this close.
