MANCHESTER, July 17

Ben Stokes was 172 not out as England accelerated to a commanding 378/5 at tea on Day 2 of the second Test against West Indies at Old Trafford here today.

Stokes and Dom Sibley had dug in before lunch to frustrate the West Indies attack but Stokes cut loose with a flurry of boundaries after the interval. Sibley, who reached his second Test century before lunch, was eventually dismissed for 120, caught by Kemar Roach at deep mid-wicket off the bowling of Roston Chase. — Reuters

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
