There was no plan how to handle the situation.
Paine turned it into a one-day game which is Stokes' forte. In a partnership of 73 off 62 balls, Jack Leach faced only 17 balls. They let Stokes milk the strike with no idea how to stop it. They kept bowling back of a length to a guy who was smashing them over the point and square leg fence - why no yorkers....!!!????
And then, they review an LBW shout that pitched so far outside leg that it's even lucky it hit a pad. I was screaming at the tele, 'don't do it' - if I can see it from 10,000 km away how come they can't?
Just plain dumb, and 3 hours of sleep I will never get back.

This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?
