Was this the strangest and saddest few hours in English cricket history? #AskGeorge
Is it now time for Ed Barnard to captain England? #AskGeorge
Walkabout is near by right? Does it have a booking for England team for this evening? 😂 #AskGeorge
Will England be lucky enough to see a Cricketer of Stokes' quality again in our lifetimes?
May I @AskGeorge if Somerset will win the T20 Blast this year?
What are the chances that this is a play by Stokes to unsettle power in the ECB and we see him walking out to lead the team in the Ashes next year? #AskGeorge
A wicket straight after the announcement. Can Ben Stokes’ script writer stay on?! #askgeorge
Captain Jimmy Anderson to right the ship for the next year? Gives us a reliable defensive bowler so Ahmed can be the all-rounder #askgeorge
Is Ben Stokes The M.O.A.T? Messiest Of All Time? Got to admire a man who fights backs back against a B.S. suspension, dominants his comeback game with the ball then retires at lunch before finally opening the batting! He's still big, it's English cricket that's got small #AskGeorge
Was Ben Stokes promoting himself up the order a brave gamble in tough circumstances, or regrettable hubris? #askgeorge
Is rejigging the batting order savvy tactics aimed at countering a deteriorating surface, or simply a reflection that Stokesy has a table booked at Hooters for 7pm and the lads are keen to not let tomorrow get in the way? #AskGeorge
I’d like to #AskGeorge what the **** is going on?
Is there no better tribute to the death of Bazball than this innings of increasing stupidity?
What odds on Andy Flower or Jonathan Trott being England coach by the 1st test Vs Pakistan?
Are Key and McCullum also on their way out? #AskGeorge
Is it preferable to announce your retirement beforehand (Cook, Broad, Stokes)? Or after the event (Hussain, Williamson)? Is the former more about the individual and the latter more consistent with a team ethic? (I ask this notwithstanding my admiration for all the players mentioned).
