[Deutsch Wolf]

Fantastic innings, I've criticised him a lot (rightly) but this has been brilliant.

 

[Sniffer]

He must have a party to get to this evening.

 

[Dinowolf]

9 overs for 102 runs

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Utter carnage. Enough, they are dead already. It's under 2 an over now, stop biffing and protect the wicket.

 

[Sniffer]

79 from for 36 balls since tea for Bairstow if I've heard it correctly.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Yep. McCullum global quickest test century was I think 55 balls. That's the perspective of this assault.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

50 for broken Stokes in 55 balls. Tavare pedestrian by comparison.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

This ball probably needs changing. Its been bouncing off the stands for some time!

 

[Carrotdude]

Bairstow is proper box office when he gets it right, fair play!

 

[Dinowolf]

I think Stokes may be feeling a bit better.

 

[Sniffer]

You have to applaud Nottinghamshire/The ECB for filling up the ground today. They should leave honesty boxes by the exits so that people can leave a contribution for the entertainment that they've been given for nowt!

 

[AndyWolves]

the soundtrack to some of these hits is awesome

 

[Sniffer]

One more boundary and it will be an all time record for a test.....

and there it is.

 

[AndyWolves]

fine innings from bairstow

 

[darlowolf64]

Shame Bairstow won't be there at the end

 

[Dinowolf]

Bairstow gone 136

272-5

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Amazing by YBJ. Now let the others knock off the last few runs. Don't blow it from here for goodness sake.

 

[darlowolf64]

I bet @Stan Hullis is having a fun day

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I'm rather envious. Had the time to be there, but the petrol cost would have annihilated my budget even with a free ticket price.

 

[Dinowolf]

Superb innings by Bairstow
