FOUR runs
and he gets hundred! Fifty-four balls! What a gorgeous, gorgeous innings. Usually is when this guy stays for a prolonged period. Short of a length outside off and he slaps it off the front foot. Long-on does well to get a hand with his dive to the left, but he only parries it into the boundary

reverse ramp! Stokes with some genius of his own! Gets low too early for the ramp over short fine. Bhuvi follows him with a full one across his body and Stokes quickly swivels to go the other way. Uses the angle and gets it over short third

but it won't matter! Overpitched outside off, stays leg side of it and adjusts his timing to get this well in front of deep backward point. The method is the same: wait, open the face, pick your spot. But the execution is different. And it is perfect. What a sensational over of T20 batting.

dropped! Three fielders under it and if you have your money on the keeper, you've just lost it. Slower ball outside off, Samson wants to whip into the leg side and gets a top edge into the square leg region. Bairstow calls for it, perhaps rightly so, but is just a tad late on it and ends up lunging forward and low as h...

taken at long-on! Rahane's watch has ended. Quality innings by the end. He's beaten by a quality ball though. Nadeem hangs this up at a length on middle.
