Every team in the T20 format wishes to have multi-dimensional players. England in that regard are lucky to have someone like Ben Stokes, who can be very effective both with bat and ball.Stokes has a Batting Strike-rate of 143 and will be a key member of the lower middle-order, along with Eoin Morgan and Jos Buttler.
While an economy rate of 9.25 is a bit too high for any kind of bowler, Stokes will still be someone who would be relied upon by Morgan and co. and it will be interesting to see the phase of the game where he is used with the ball.
