0:00.0 | Jones, Barron. |
0:07.7 | He's got it. |
0:08.6 | England have won the World Cup by the barest of margins. |
0:12.9 | Stokes flashes this away, through the covers for four, |
0:16.2 | and England have won the match. |
0:29.8 | Hello and welcome to the analyst inside cricket after the second day's play at Lords, |
0:35.3 | South Africa very much on top. No two ways about it. They've played the cricket over the first two days. Maybe you could say they had the best |

1:23.6 | Opening stand of 85 and Aver making 73 from 146 boards. He only hits six fours. |
1:30.7 | Again, not particularly flashy, but mighty effective. And actually, you could argue, I suppose, |
1:35.8 | that, you know, it just shows that there are more than one way to approach opening the batting |
1:42.0 | in test match cricket. It's not all about going after your shots. |
1:46.6 | And they showed the other way, really the really orthodox way, the conventional way. |
