Top 5 performers from England vs Pakistan ODI series

Ben Stokes

Coming on the back of an injury that ruled him out of the latter part of the Test series against Pakistan, Ben Stokes knew that he couldn't bowl as much as he would want in the ODI series and needed to step up with the bat. And boy, did he do that.

In the four innings that he had an opportunity to bat, he scored two fifties, including his career-best ODI score. All of this came at a strike rate in excess of 100 and his ability to clear the fence with ease and treat every bowler with absolute disdain was evident in the series.

While he might have only got a wicket in the series, he didn’t get to bowl as much and his economy rate of 4.75 in a high-scoring series is certainly impressive. With 201 runs in the series at an average of 67 and strike rate of over 102, he finished as England’s third-leading run-scorer in the series despite only coming in at No.5.
