    "editor1": "<p><strong>WI vs ENG 2nd Test:<\/strong> West Indies vice-captain Jermaine Blackwood and English all-rounder Ben Stokes were seen in an intense battle of words on the field. The issue escalated quickly and the umpires had to intervene to resolve the issue. Jermaine Blackwood was batting at 82* in the second test match between West Indies and England when this incident happened.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>On the 4th ball of the 103rd over, Blackwood shouted &#39;NO&#39; immediately after playing Stokes delivery. Ben Stokes seemed a bit off with Blackwood&#39;s reaction and went up to exchange some words with the batter. On seeing things heating up, senior umpire Joel Wilson, Ben Stokes and English captain Joe Root were seen in a deep conversation.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><img alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/img.cricketnmore.com\/uploads\/2022\/03\/ben-stokes.jpg\" style=\"height:477px; width:750px\" \/><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>However, Ben Stokes and Jermaine Blackwood seemed unmoved by this tussle and kept on exchanging words throughout the over. After the match, Blackwood said, &#39;I like playing against Ben Stokes, it&#39;s always for the good. I like fighting, and when I&#39;m batting it pushes me to perform even better. Stokes had been doing it for quite some time and I liked joining in the fun.&#39;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Let the war of words commence!<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nA heated argument broke out between <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JBlackwood100?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@JBlackwood100<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/benstokes38?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@benstokes38<\/a> and the umpires had to step in!<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nKeep watching the 2nd Test LIVE on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FanCode?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FanCode<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/JTU44AriuP\">https:\/\/t.co\/JTU44AriuP<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/windiescricket?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@windiescricket<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/englandcricket?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@englandcricket<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/15DhRMzoMt\">pic.twitter.com\/15DhRMzoMt<\/a><\/p>\r\n&mdash; FanCode (@FanCode) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FanCode\/status\/1505080509243990016?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 19, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote>\r\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Also Read: <\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/indian-premier-league-2022-schedule-squads\">IPL 2022 - Schedule &amp; Squad<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Jermaine Blackwood went on to say, &#39;I think this cricket is good.
