Ben Stokes Childhood Story
For starters in Biography, the player has the nickname “Stokesy”, “Mr Incredible”. At the same time, his full name was Benjamin Andrew Stokes, which he shortened to Ben Stokes.

His Carrer
Ben Stokes goals and strength have convinced England players that this man can replace Sir Ian Botham and Andrew Flintoff in the near future. He is one of the strongest batsmen in cricket and is England’s fastest pacer with the ball. His departure has won his team games.
Everything is a perfect package and someone was really born to play the game. He rises to the challenge and although he takes cleaners from the opposition, he has shown that he can run but is a bowler who takes wickets. Sir Ian Botham praised him saying that Ben Stokes was truly a box office hit. His time in sports started at a young age. At the age of 18, he was contacted by the English community of Durhan.
He showed his all at the 2010 U-19 World Cup. He took wickets with bat and ball in hand. On the pitch, it’s a completely normal thread. He quickly made his first grade after going to the World Cup in 2010. In his first match at FC he made 50 and took a wicket.
Stokes made an impact early in his career by scoring a magnificent cent in just his third Test match. He was not in contention in the home series against India, so he was not included in the squad for the 2015 World Cup. However, since then, he has been a consistent performer for England.
He bowled well and took wickets when his team needed them. He is now the top scorer in his league. In the IPL 2017 player auction, he made history by becoming the highest paid foreign player when he was bought by Rising Pune Supergiant for 14.5 crore. He backed up the prize money by winning most of his team’s matches, solo. He was the main reason why his RPS team qualified for the finals.
After the bar fight, the ECB suspended it and stopped acting for the next six months. His form declined during this period and his performance could not be replicated. He still managed to keep his position in the team when he returned. As young as Sam Curran knocks on the door, he will continue to work. He was bought by Rajasthan Royals in 2018 for 12.5 crores. However, it is one of the most lost things of this time. His license has always trusted him, and he will hope to change for the last time.
