Stokes' match-winning four at Headingley was an amazing moment, whichever angle you watch it from.

"I was learning to put on nappies and stuff, and then the text messages just kept coming through asking if I'd seen Stokesy," he told Sky Sports. "I rushed home to watch the highlights, and I can't believe I missed it."
