Ben Stokes is now the first England player to score 250+ runs and pick up two or more wickets in the same Test match.
He is only the 8th player with this double in a Men’s Test and the first since Tillakaratne Dilshan in 2009 (v Bangladesh in Chattogram). #ENGvWI — Sampath Bandarupalli (@SampathStats) July 20, 2020

Was having a chat with @sachin_rt Paaji this morning about the #ENGvWI match & he said that this Test isn’t over & felt England was likely to win and that they’ll set a target of 300. 😯 If the Windies have to save this game they would have to really apply themselves! 🙌🏻
