Just catching up with the BBC highlights.
The intro is full of flashy batting.
While it has been eye opening to see English batsmen playing without fear, racking up formidable totals, and chasing down formerly intimidating targets, it is the regularity of taking 20 wickets in a Test that is the real change.
Stokes' willingness to be always attacking when bowling has meant that opposition batsmen had little respite and wickets have been manufactured rather than bought.
