A dispute resolved
A dispute resolved
"It was one of the most thrillingly topsy-turvy limited-overs internationals ever played"
“It was time we carried him.”
"We probably won some fans around the world because of the way we carried ourselves"
"The argument may one day be settled by another innings, and Stokes will doubtless play it"
"A game that kept confounding expectations"
"The fans began to wonder: could a place in the semi-finals really be slipping through England’s fingers?"
"For South Africa, a fifth defeat really did mean curtains"
"No one saw this coming – least of all England"
He later admitted he didn’t think he had the innings in him
