Why can't this be on terrestrial?

**** 'em I say....pictures are better on the radio anyway

I can still remember the walk I was on when we won the World Cup. Forever etched in my mind and much better than being sat in front of a tv

The greatest Test ending ever?

Sir Benjamin Stokes. The bloke’s a warrior and an incredible sportsman.

The Aussies must be shell shocked.

8 Sixes scored in the Test Match, all by Ben Stokes !

 

[BensGrandad]

Well done Ben Stokes now lets make a couple of changes for the 4th Test and go on and win the series.

 

[Doonhamer7]

Wow, wow, wow, what an innings

 

[larus]

I'm speechless. We had no right to win that.

What an astounding innings from Stokes. Last night just blocking everything, then building slowly all day, then suddenly unleashed.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Whole thing. Utterly unreal.

 

[Doonhamer7]

Test cricket is the most amazing sporting event, how it swings in so may ways

 

[Eeyore]

Well done Ben Stokes now lets make a couple of changes for the 4th Test and go on and win the series.

I agree. Stokes was a immense. But changes must be made. That was a once in a lifetime victory in extraordinary circumstances.

We don't want to have to go there again.

Money. The cricket authorities sold out.

Annoying that the BBC have now fixed it so you can't listen to it in the car unless you've got digital radio, which many, many cars do not have (or unless you've got a very old one, with Long Wave).

Got something in my eye.

For all the ups and downs of following sport, these magical moments make it all worth it. Lovely to see a hero of mine Botham in the Sky studio, fitting. Boy, he loves Stokes.

 

[Sussex Nomad]

Managed to watch it on my phone, all to the end. Unbelievable, incredible, what can anyone say after that? Not seen anything like the Stokes innings since the Botham Ashes. Quite emotionally drained just watching, can imagine how Stokesy feels. F'kin get in there!!!

Edit: can imagine how Stokesy feels was supposed to be can't imagine... think I've been swept away by a great sporting moment.

[Garry Nelson's teacher]

Boring game, cricket.

 

[1066familyman]

5 live extra. Digital.

 

[Weststander]

Sweetens the Andone pill.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

**** me!

I decided the game was up at 9 down. went down the shops. Had a phone call with my mum

Fired up the laptop to see how close we got.. had to refresh the page about 3 times whilst it sunk in

****ing hell

 

[jakarta]

Stokes is the last hope, long shot I know! He won the WC, he can win this test. [emoji106]

Bloody hell, you clearly haven't a clue about Test Cricket...

Radio 5 extra. Not on MW.

Shades of 1981. Wow!
