Regarded as one of the best all-rounders of the modern-day cricket, Ben Stokes has largely struggled to be at his best in the Indian Premier League. Snapped by Rajasthan Royals to turn their favour in the cash-rich league, Stokes has managed only 319 runs from 22 games along with 14 wickets. His poor outings sum up Royals' campaign in the last two IPLs.

However, the New Zealand-born all-rounder has been in the best form of his career in the last few months. Since winning the World Cup for England last year in July, everything touched by Stokes has turned into gold. He played a match-winning knock in the World Cup finals and then stood up to save England from humiliation in the Ashes.

Considering his current form, Ben Stokes is expected to set the stage on fire as the Steve Smith-led side continue their hunt for the second IPL title. More so, with Jofra Archer sidelined with an injury, Stokes will have to be at his best to lift Rajasthan when the tournament starts from March 29.
