2.) Ben Stokes
In a crunch game against Sri Lanks against a rampaging Angelo Mathews who was taking his side to an unlikely victory, Ben Stokes was in the cauldron with 15 runs to get off the final over. It was a game hanging in the balance, but Stokes hurled three yorkers and then later exulted in the glory of having defended the runs.
"I said in an interview afterwards that I'd much rather be doing that last over thing than sitting there watching and hoping whoever bowled it gets us through. I'd rather be the man doing it. It's a lot easier on the nerves,” said Stokes after the match.
