Former England captain Michael Vaughan is keen to see Ben Stokes reverse his ODI retirement. The star all-rounder showed his class as he hit an unbeaten 52 to steer England to glory in the T20 World Cup final against Pakistan.
His starring performance in Melbourne is the latest clutch performance he has delivered and the 2005 Ashes-winning captain is desperate to see the 31-year-old represent England at the next 50-over tournament in 2023. “Can you play in next year's 50-over World Cup please @benstokes38!! Asking for a nation,” he pleaded on twitter.
In an ODI career that commenced in 2011, Stokes played 105 matches and scored 2,924 runs at an average of 39.44 and took 74 wickets. This puts the 31-year-old all‑rounder is 19th on England’s all-time list for both runs scored and wickets taken.
