Ben Stokes praised a breakthrough performance from Shoaib Bashir after he became the youngest England player to take a Test five-fer on home soil. The captain said the 20‑year‑old bowler had “showed the world what he can do” as West Indies were skittled for 143 and the second Test was won by 241 runs.
“That wicket offered hardly anything for a spinner throughout the whole Test match, and to be honest I didn’t think it did today,” Stokes said.
