Ben Stokes sends cricketing fans into a tizzy whenever he enters the playing field for his team, England. The all-rounder is skilled with the bat and ball, being a fast-medium right-arm bowler and left-handed batter. On the domestic cricket circuit, he debuted for Durham in a one-day match at The Oval, claiming the coveted wicket of striker Mark Ramprakash with only his third ball. While he made his test cricket debut in December 2013 against Australia, his first ODI was against Ireland in August 2011 and first T-20 international against the Windies in September 2011. He served as the vice-captain of the England test squad from February 2017. He is currently part of the Rajasthan Royals in the IPL (Indian Premier League) – he played for the Melbourne Renegades in the BBL (Big Bash League) in 2015 as Jesse Ryder’s replacement.
