And a run out

Bairstow poked it to mid-off, set off for the single that was never there, and was run out for 0 by a direct hit at the bowlers end. Poor

63-3 (12.3 )

Standard Vince, but didnt expect that from Bairstow

 

[CHAPPERS]

Interesting series this, Bangladesh are really strong at home. Hope Duckett can get some runs.

 

[Titanic]

England 100-3 (19.5 overs) Stokes 16* Duckett 26*

Steady stuff against the Bangladesh spinners...

 

[Titanic]

Ben Stokes 52* (45 balls, 3 sixes, 4 fours)

143-3 (26 overs)

80 runs at 5.92 added with Duckett.

Good effort from these two.... a decent base for a competitive score.

 

[Titanic]

100 partnership for Stokes 66* and Duckett 42* at better than a run a ball

England 166-3 (28.4 overs)

 

[Titanic]

Stokes dropped twice in a couple of overs (on 69 by Mahmudullah at mid-on and on 72 a skier at deep extra) .... costly

175-3 (31.2 overs)

You beauty! I'm on Virgin media too and didn't know about SkySports mix. Now I've cancelled Sky Sports I appear to have that one now. Cheers [MENTION=1575]whitelion[/MENTION]

Which is exactly what I should be embarrassed about myself. Other than it turned out to be one of the best bits of business I've done for a while. Whilst deviously playing TalkTalk against retaining Sky I battered out a better deal than I could ever have imagined.
Sky (inc Sports) was about £85 a month. Now have 'TalkTalk Plus' all singing and dancing set up. £32.50 and Sky Sports for an extra £11. Half the price....and if that wasn't enough TalkTalk sent me £120 of Shopping vouchers which I used in Argos.

 

[Titanic]

Ben Duckett 50* (63 balls, 5 fours)

Good effort on debut from the young man

England 190-3 (33.5 overs)

 

[Titanic]

England 200-3 (35 overs, RR5.71)

Target surely 300+ now...

 

[Titanic]

Duckett gone for 60... swiping at a low full toss...

BM Duckett b Shafiul Islam 60 (78b 6x4 0x6) SR: 76.92

216-4 (39 overs)

 

[Titanic]

England 220-4 (40 overs)

10 overs to go... with Stokes and Buttler at the crease... Ali and Woakes to come...

 

[Titanic]

Ben Stokes 100* (98 balls, 8 fours, 4 sixes)

 

[Titanic]

Tired shot from Stokes... stuffs it down deep midwicket's throat.

230-5 (41.3 overs)
