506 runs on the first dat of the test match against Pakistan with four Century + scores astounding batting
-
Incredible
Most runs scored by a team in the first day of a test match.
Fastest century by an opener in England history (Crawley)
3rd fastest century in England history (Brook)
2 players making maiden Test centuries (Duckett and Brook)
Regardless of pitch/opposition that's an amazing achievement esp in the context of how the top order has struggled in recent months and the squad being beset by a sickness bug.

They were 174-0 at lunch, they were scoring faster than the T20 team

And it wasn't a slog fest , there's was barely a chance for Pakistan till 180 up

Brook hit four 6’s in one over
-
Not the most demanding wicket in the world then...
-
Brook hit four 6’s in one over
Are you sure Filo, saw that he had hit 6 4s in one over
-
It's a funny game isn't it, it was pretty much done as a contest halfway through day 2
The bug going round has more chance of creating a result than the bowlers.

You could be right and I read it wrong

England win with minutes to spare, great declaration by Stokes to go for the win
-
Absolutely fantastic test match. Had everything….apart from a decent wicket! Our players were immense and to win with about 8 minutes to spare kept everyone on the edge of their seats. Loved it!
-
This Test Match is rubbish by comparison.
Just 25 wickets in the first 2 days and nigh on 700 runs.
Stokes out!!!

Australian pace attack in England is different gravy.
Make sure if you get Ashes tickets you've got them for the first 2 days. These games aren't being drawn over 5 days without rain
