Ben Stokes Is Still One Of The Best Batters England Have Produced In Any Format: Nasser Hussain
Sky Sports Cricket: Former captain Nasser Hussain was in awe of Ben Stokes hitting a record-breaking 182 off 124 balls in England’s 181-run victory over New Zealand in the third ODI, saying the all-rounder is still one of the best batters the hosts’ have across all formats.
Stokes hit 15 fours and nine sixes in his amazing knock of 182, and also set the new record for the highest individual ODI score by any batter in England men's ODIs. Stokes also had a critical partnership of 199 off 165 deliveries with Dawid Malan (96) for the third wicket.
“Stokes is a phenomenal cricketer, he really is. People asked whether or not he should come back but it was a complete no-brainer for me. Just because he may not be able to bowl, he’s still one of the best batters we’ve produced in any format," said Hussain to Sky Sports Cricket after the match ended.
