00:18Pulled away and pulled all the way.

00:24Full swing of the bat, short, he picked it up really quickly, it was onto the ball.
00:31And he saw that very early.
00:36Good flourish of a finish.
00:46There we go from Stokes again, loves to play the sweep and flies it all the way.
00:55Plunk as it hits.
01:01Got there, come got there, no he's got there.
01:07That there is one of his favourite shots and he plays it well again.
01:15Plays that shot pretty well too.

01:31It's an excellent shot from Ben Stokes.
01:45That'll go quickly for four.
01:47That'll go quickly for four.
01:49The extra pace.
01:56Again beautifully played.
01:58It will go for four and it will bring up a half century for Ben Stokes.
02:02He's played quite brilliantly here, 52 from 45, high quality today.
02:07Hasn't been scared to get down on that one knee.
02:10Appreciative bench.
02:12Once again with a horizontal bat shot.
02:16Very productive area for him today.
02:19Superb 50.
02:25Uses his feet again.
02:27What a result that is. It's gone a long, long way.
02:30And this is a terrific shot.
02:33Slightly, it's a turn but dead straight.
02:36So simple from Ben Stokes.

02:56All the way and he's out.
02:58Put down.
02:59Thought he had it.
03:01Did have it.
03:04Mamadoula put it down.
03:06He's hit that hard and flat.
03:08It was tough because it was a low catch that just kept coming at him.
03:12As you say, looked like he had it.
03:14Just never quite got his hands on it.
03:16But it was just juggling around his body and ended up spilling it.
03:22What a shot.
03:24Does he get enough of it? He does and in the air.
03:26Drops again.
03:28Second chance for Stokes.
03:32Look to go over. Extra cover and mid-off.
03:35And it's an outside edge.
03:38The noise has just gone up another level.
03:40As that ball went sky high.
03:42Never looked like getting anywhere near it.
03:44Should have been a lot closer to that ball.

04:41He's played all around the wicket today.
04:43It's been such a wonder to watch.
04:49It's gone a long way.
