Those are Shane Watsons stats

How do we rate Watson compared to Stokes?

Bloody smart cricket by England capitalised on our poor line and length today. Took every opportunity to hit a boundary.
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

Switched on 11.04, wicket at 11.09.

I'll switch off when the Australians start batting...

Only a matter of time .. new ball, moving around, Stokes going for his shots.

Good innings, but most likely not enough.
