Liam Livingstone in ODI action for England
(Picture: Action Images via Reuters)As one Cumbrian all-rounder, Ben Stokes, takes his leave from ODI cricket, England need more from their other Cumbrian all-rounder, Liam Livingstone.
They are not identical players – seamer versus spinner – but Livingstone offers plenty as Stokes’ replacement. He is a hard-hitting batter, bowls handy overs (and spin might be more useful at a World Cup in India), he is superb in the field and, like Stokes, he brings a bit of snarl and swagger.
