"Ben Stokes has returned to action in astonishing fashion for the first time since being named England Test captain with a record-breaking century for Durham in the County Championship match with Worcestershire.
The superstar allrounder struck 17 sixes, a century before lunch, and 34 off an over from Josh Baker on his way to 161 from just 88 deliveries at Worcester's New Road on Friday."

"Middlesex's Australian captain Peter Handscomb played a key support role as his side chased down a tough target of 370 to defeat Sussex by seven wickets on Sunday and go top of the County Championship's second division.
A partnership of 209 between Sam Robson, who hammered 149, and Handscomb, who compiled 79 off 142 balls, set Middlesex on their way to the win, achieved with just 19 balls left in the match, and which has left Sussex winless after five games."

"Handscomb then tipped Australian-born Robson to revive his England Test career as he celebrated a win that saw Middlesex put together their eighth-highest fourth-innings total ever.
"It was an incredible win, to chase down that big total in 74 overs. We saw the moment there and we took it," Handscomb said."

I posted a link to a fuller report from the ABC in the "Ben Stokes" thread, here: viewtopic.php?t=83058&start=100Donny wrote:"Ben Stokes has returned to action in astonishing fashion for the first time since being named England Test captain with a record-breaking century for Durham in the County Championship match with Worcestershire.

It was a knock of record-breaking proportions.
