Ben Stokes is one of the greatest all-rounders of the modern era. The England cricket team star has made a name for himself with his swashbuckling performances in all three formats of cricket. Stokes is famous for his contributions to England’s success in the 2019 World Cup and the Ashes series.
The England team star took a break from the sport last year to focus on his mental well-being. He returned for the Ashes series but failed to impress the fans. After that, Stokes decided to skip IPL 2022 and focus on his Test career. Now he is playing for the England team in the ICC World Test Championship series against the West Indies cricket team.
Stokes scored a fine ton for his team in the ongoing second Test against West Indies. The England team is bowling now. The duo of Kraigg Brathwaite and Jermaine Blackwood have given a tough time to the England bowlers. Both Caribbean batters have recorded a hundred each in the first innings.
They performed so well with the willow that at one of point of time, Ben Stokes ran out of patience. He tried to break his opponent’s concentration with an exchange of words.
Ben Stokes argued with Jermaine Blackwood during the West Indies’ innings
In the 103rd over of the West Indies’ innings, Ben Stokes tried to divert Jermaine Blackwood’s attention by exchanging words with him. They had a heated argument during that over. Ultimately, the umpires had to intervene. They had a chat with captain Joe Root and Stokes before the match resumed again.
FanCode, the official broadcaster of the West Indies team’s home matches in India, uploaded a video of that heated argument on their official social media handle. You can watch that video right here:
