McCullum Praises England Test Skipper Ben Stokes; 'Incredible Person, Great Thinker Of The Game'

By IANS News September 13, 2022 • 15:49 PM View: 1260

England men's red-ball coach Brendon McCullum has heaped huge praise on captain Ben Stokes, calling him "a rare, incredible person" who is a great thinker of the game. He also admitted to being surprised over how influential and successful Stokes has been as England's Test captain.

Under Stokes' leadership, England recently secured a 2-1 series win over South Africa, winning the third Test at The Oval by nine wickets. It also meant that England ended their home summer on a high, with their remarkable turnaround in Test cricket under the leadership of Stokes and McCullum being the highlight.
