What does Stokes actually bring to the team?

Ridiculous pitch. It shouldn't be doing this much on Day 1, the first session of Day 1 at that. 200 and we're in the game here.

Great captaincy.
A bit like Morgan in the shorter format all those years ago. Was often under pressure because of his batting, but he was an exceptional leader who could come up with strategies and fields to dismiss the opposition and instilled that confidence in their batting.
He's just back from injury and playing on a minefield, you can't judge him for his batting on this surface too much. He's never been the best player of spin.
Looking at how these two are batting, putting away the sweep shot that is a get out shot on this pitch! A bit late really!
Pakistan will get over 300 on this pitch they way they bat against spin, so we need at least 275 but can't see it more like 200

May have already been mentioned, but apparently the Glazer family (excluding Joel) have made a bid for one of the hundred teams....
Hope it's not Manchester....
