England's Test captain Ben Stokes is currently playing county cricket and he is creating a lot of havoc with the bat as well as the ball. Stokes won everyone's heart with his bowling for Durham against Worcestershire in the County Championship Division One match. This experienced all-rounder contributed 82 runs with the bat in the entire match and also took the wicket of Rob Jones with the ball.
The ball on which Rob Jones was dismissed was an amazing delivery and its video is also going viral at the moment. This ball was seen during the 21st over of Worcestershire's second innings, when they were chasing a target of 231 runs. After losing the wickets of Gareth Roderick and captain Jake Libby, Jones' dismissal put Worcestershire on the backfoot. Stokes laid a trap for Jones with some short-pitch balls before dismissing him.
After this, Stokes bowled the next ball around good length and the ball beat Jones' defense while seaming and his off stump was seen doing a cartwheel. Jones kept posing and this ball of Stokes fascinated everyone. Some fans are also comparing this ball of Stokes to Jasprit Bumrah's dream ball. You can see the video of this ball below.
However, Worcestershire won the match despite losing early wickets. The match-winning partnership between Kashif Ali and Adam Hose helped them win. Both the players hit half-centuries in reply, helping Worcestershire successfully chase the target in 61.2 overs despite early setbacks. Talking about Stokes, this legendary cricketer will play in the upcoming ODI against West Indies Test Series He is fully prepared to lead England in the ODIs.
