What a test match, what a result, Villa man with the winning hit. Whoop-de-do.

Great stuff woaksey. Unsung hero again as Sky were praising Wood. Only now giving Woaks a bit of credit.

Woakes and Wood have been superb with ball and bat.

Extremely appropriate that it was those two bringing it home, and that with the bat they did the job like they did with the ball - Woakes brought the control, Wood brought the fireworks. Joint man-of-the-match for both of them.

Another thriller. Partnership between Brook and Woakes was pivotal and then Wood’s hitting at the end sealed it.

Great to see a Villa man getting England over the line.

Woakes is easily Englands best all rounder. Never let’s the side down

Fantastic stuff well done Woakesy and Wood at the end, so we don't always have to rely on our great leader to get us over the line.

Brook, Woakes, and Wood did fantastically.
They’ve got to look at Foakes for the next game.
