3 All-rounders who could replace ‘Ben Stokes’ in ODI Cricket for England
The England cricketer Ben Stokes, who is the current English test team captain has recently announced shocking retirement from the one-day international format of cricket. After his sudden pull back from the format the England team management has to think about his strong replacement for the side. Ben Stokes was a magical player who gave his enormous contribution to the English side and it will be the hardest thing to replicate his all-around performance and compensate it with the hands of any other athlete.
Ben stokes World cup final knock of 2019 was the most memorable instance of him for his fans and followers along with the Ben Stokes Headingley knock which he played in the test match during the ashes series, where he single-handedly clinched the victory for England. Along with his batting and bowling his fielding was also charismatic in between both skills which is the lone reason why he is called a Superman of cricket while he fields on the ground.
The compensation of stokes for any player is the hardest task to do but beneath are three fast bowling all-rounders of England who can actually replace him in the ODI team.
#1. Craig Overton.
Craig Overton is the perfect man to replicate Ben Stoke’s cricket career for the English One day International. He is a right-handed batsman and bowler but he has a similar approach to stokes used to execute during his gameplay in the one-day match.
Overton has been freshly inducted into the test squad of the England team and from there he has made his place in the one-day squad for the side. Ben Stokes catches a perfect guy, Craig Overton for him to be a replacement in this limited overs format for England.
#2. David Willey.
David Willey can be a superseding candidate for the position of stokes in the day International team, well he is a bowling all-rounder who knows a little bit of batting but his fresh numbers in the ODI Cricket for England manifest a different story.
In the recently happened ODI series against India Willey has played some fantastic 40-odd-run Knocks and also clinched wickets on a regular basis which is the same work that this England great had to do in the one-day side.
#3. Sam Curran.
Sam Curran another all-rounder name in the English side who is consistently trying out for the last two or three years to book a permanent spot in the England one-day team. Ben stokes cricket career has been pretty balanced in the batting and bowling department and Sam Curran also seems to be that perfect blend of equal skill sets in both aspects.
So this skilled southpaw all-rounder can make a position in the England side at number 6 where Stokes’ cricket career has started and ended up on the same slot.
