Epic. England were ahead all the way , windies needed 19 runs off the last over, but some ginormous kid called Braithwaite whacked Ben Stokes for 4 straight sixes in the last over to steal it for the West Indies..Windies have won it twice now and hold the u19's world cup and the womens world cup, so maybe carribbean cricket is on the comeback trail?....I think Cricket has shaken off its boring tag too today lol

Exciting game, but it's clear Ben Stokes has, in the words of my old boss, "a learning curve you could play billiards on".

The best finish ever of a cricket match. When the West Indies (who my son and I both support) reached the last over needing 19 to win I had given up, and if I was at a bookie would have put the house on an England to win, but my son said "Enillwn ni a 2 bel i sbario" - we'll win with 2 balls to spare and miraculously it happened. There must be a God uop there but he seems to have given up with Pro12 Rugby.

An incredible over by the Indies. I am a WI cricket fan first, England second (only because there isn't a Welsh team). I think it was a great victory for Sammy and the boys, but it does not mean they are back as far as tests and odi's.
