Stokes Shines in County Clash

Ben Stokes showcased his all-round abilities for Surrey against Derbyshire, scoring a valuable 53 runs with 11 fours. His innings included a remarkable cross-legged lofted drive that drew murmurs of appreciation from the crowd.

The England all-rounder, who could have been part of the national team's match against Pakistan, was eventually dismissed by Anuj Dal in a somewhat unusual manner, caught like a man taking a kitchen catch from the fruit bowl. sportnewz.click
