Tremendous effort from England today, especially the knocks from Morgan and Stokes.
How good is Ben Stokes? I'd have him down as the best all rounder in the world today.
Is he better than Botham was? I think its a tough call because Stokes is a far better batsman than Botham was, but Botham was a far better bowler. If anything I would have them down as different types of all rounders. Botham was a bowler who could bat, and Stokes is a batsman who can bowl.
The closest cricketer I can compare to Stokes is Jacques Kaliis, but I wouldn't put him in Kallis's class just yet.
