Could have taken a run to guarantee a draw. If the Aussies hadn't wasted a review it would be all over. Stokes was plum.
Thank you Joe Wilson. Possible the worst Umpire of current era but ;D

Cummins may be the best bowler, Smith the best batsman, but the world's best cricketer by a million miles is Ben Stokes.
