The one thing about BazBall is that it does not do boring. Even in a run-fest that turned into only the 2nd draw of Ben Stokes's captaincy, the man found a way to make the Test memorable.
The handshake that wasn't stole all the headlines, with England pleading to go off on Day 5 after failing to take any wickets for 2 sessions, and Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar on the cusp of centuries.
And thus BegBall was born, and a light was shone on the petulance lurking underneath the bombast of the McCullum-Stokes era.
Yes, this is an episode full of ranting. We did also discuss the cricket.
