Ben Stokes Joins Sobers, Kallis with 7,000 Runs, 200 Wickets in Test Cricket
Ben Stokes has demonstrated remarkable resilience and skill in cricket, overcoming significant injuries to emerge as a dominant all-rounder for England. In 2023, after a serious knee operation and hamstring tears, he became England's leading wicket-taker of the summer and achieved his first five-wicket haul in eight years, showcasing his potency as a bowler. Stokes joined cricket legends like Garry Sobers and Jacques Kallis by becoming only the third player to score over 7,000 Test runs and take more than 200 wickets, underscoring his status as one of the game's finest all-rounders. His historic performance, including a century and five-wicket haul in the same Test, made him the first English captain to achieve this feat and highlighted his gritty, ruthless edge. Beyond statistics, Stokes is praised for his role as a mood-setter and leader, influencing both the team and crowd with his dynamic presence. Despite past heartbreaks, such as the 2016 World Cup final loss, Stokes’s continuous evolution and impact affirm that genuine fast-bowling all-rounders remain vital in modern cricket.
