But Ben Stokes is on fire in the second Test in Manchester. In the first innings of the second Test of the series against the West Indies, England declared their innings at 469 for nine, with Stokes batting for 16 fours and two sixes. In this innings, the English all-rounder has written the name next to the legends in a celebrity. Stokes is the fifth all-rounder to score 10 centuries and take 150 wickets in Tests after Gary Sobers, Ian Botham, Robbie Shastri and Jacques Kallis. After yesterday's innings, Stokes was naturally blessed. As former India batsman and current cricket analyst Akash Chopra puts it, Stokes is the best all-rounder of all time in three editions. After that, Shakib Al Hasan of Bangladesh and Rabindra Jadeja of India have been included in the list by Akash Chopra.

After England won the World Cup and shed light on the Ashes, the cricket world is fascinated by Stokes. Stokes, who lost the title to Carlos Brafet of the West Indies in the final of the 2016 T20 World Cup with four sixes off four balls or a fight with a Bristol pub three years ago, has now become so much! He is also praised for that. He is already a hero in English cricket, and if he can play like this, there is little doubt that Stokes will say goodbye to the best cricketers. That is a matter of the future, Akash Chopra is giving the recognition of the best all-rounder of the time to Stokes.

 ‘At the moment I have no doubt in my mind that Ben Stokes is the No. 1 all-rounder in the world in all editions. If you look at Test cricket, (with the bat) he averages 43, in ODIs 59, and in T20 he averages 33. Bowling average in Tests is 26. 54 in ODIs, it is an exception. His bowling average in T20 is 18 '- Akash Chopra said in his channel Akashvani on YouTube. However, the sky is not clear, but it is not the average of Stokes' career, the average of the last two years. However, Akash's verdict against Stokes is due to his performance over the past two years. "There is no doubt that Ben Stokes is the best all-rounder in the world at the moment. I really want Hardik Pandya (India's all-rounder) to reach this point. He (Pandya) was having a very good time in his promising career, but two injuries in a row pushed him back a bit. ' Analyzing who Stokes means or who is close to him, Akash Chopra said, ‘Jaddu (India all-rounder Rabindra Jadeja) is on his way, but has not reached there yet. Shakib must have reached that stage. I don't see any other player out there who can get close to him (Stokes). ' Shakib, who was sidelined due to an ICC ban, was once the world's best all-rounder in all three editions. The Bangladeshi left-arm all-rounder also had a dazzling performance with the bat in the last World Cup. Considering the performance of the last two years, Shakib averaged 34 in Tests with the bat, 63.52 in ODIs and 36.75 in T20s. Shakib averaged 20.50 in Tests with the ball, 36.32 in ODIs and 17.40 in T20s.
