Why does everyone say stokes is even that good. Everyone is saying drop Green at the moment. He avgs 34 with the bat and 35 with the ball. Stokes avgs 35 with the bat and 32 with the ball. Not much different really. Yeah stokes has done it over a longer time. But his hype train runs strong

Steve Smith is a better captain than Cummins and Stokes.

He’s a very good tactical captain. His hands are tied with this team

From an Aussie: Stokes is a good captain he has got the grit in to his game but his team are letting him down.

He's a good captain, his bowlers just don't bowl to the plan. Can't set a field for bad bowling 🤷‍♂️

Stokes isn’t “proactive” he’s impatient and doesn’t have a clear plan he believes in

Is it even Ben's team? How influential is he in terms of who is going out there.... Maybe there is even a silent mutiny in the camp

He is a part time cricketer, not available to bowl more than he is.

I think Stokes can be tactically strong but he needs to be super switched-on and thinking about the game situation. Whereas Steve Smith is tactically strong instinctively

let's be honest, anyone can. be classed a good Captain when a player is out on 70, not given (cheating). Take off Carey's extra runs and those scored at the other end and the 80 difference isn't there Typical Aussie BS

I'm not a stokes fan and I do agree ...plus...imagine how good stokes could be...even more so...if he could just focus on his own game...i think when they come under pressure ben feels he's the one to win it...it not only gives the other players a cop out rather than making them step up...but also add unnecessary pressure on himself...plus...how tactical can you be when your mantra is to go put and slap the ball silly...and that's what the English team now identifies as..

England have a patience problem. They have one batsmen with it and zero bowlers.

1st day 1st test we dominated ball and bat and then bang 💥 out of nowhere we lost the test. Poor captaincy I believe that and patience isn’t what we haven’t got.
