Sibley been lucky still not convinced by him but who else have we got? Let’s see ho he does in India I might be eating my words.

Review system aiding England

Are you counting decisions the umpires have given not out?

A lot of credit goes to Sibley for sticking about

What a test series quality cricket to watch. India series should be good too if it isn’t all one way.

Honestly, mate, I think they're gravy with an entirely different taste to it.

 

[Don Karleone]

Enjoyed that.

Fair do's thats a good run chase

Sibley carried his bat. Nice.

All the established players have stood up. Root, Butler, Bairstow, Anderson and Broad have all been great, Wood was really good as well. Fair play to England, a real professional performance over all.

Sets up up well for the year ahead. Will be tough in India but let's be honest, it's all about the Ashes this year.

Great win, excellent Test Match!

Bigger challenge ahead now in India, will be interesting to see who's in the starting 11 given the rotation policy. Though it does open up the prospect of a middle order including Stokes, Woakes and Foakes for a Test. Burns coming back too.

Great scenes of the entire England team going over and appluading the lone England fan on the fort who has been there every day for the two tests
