Thankfully the rain held off for a full 20/20 encounter, with England now the proud holders of both the 20/20 and 50 over World white ball competitions. Strangely Stokes did not get the MOM for the only fifty in the game to see the match home, Curran claimed the prize with three wickets and also took the player of the tournament.
 A year is a long time in cricket, with the red ball side getting totally stuffed twelve months ago down under .

Bowlers win matches, in games like these.

Stokes was the weak link in this team…apparently…although he dug us out of trouble on more than occasion. Never understood the dislike against him - wins tight matches for us, annoys the opposition and kicks the s**t out of homophobic drunks. What’s not to like?

If all England matches were broadcast on FTA television, Ben Stokes would be arguably the biggest sporting star in this country. Sky Sports and the ECB have blood on their hands.

England are obviously so poor in every format we have no alternative but to change the entire domestic structure of the game. There can't be any other motive can there?

Indeed. Nothing to see here…
