World Cup 2019: 5 all-rounders to watch out for 

#1 Ben Stokes

Ben Stokes

One of the most potent all-rounders at present, Ben Stokes has changed the dynamics of English cricket in all formats of the game ever since his arrival. A batsman capable of batting in the top 5 and a bowler capable of giving his side 10 reliable overs, Stokes has been England's trump card over the past few years.

His improvement as a bowler has been an added bonus for England. With a knack of getting the big wickets, Stokes has aided to the wicket-taking prowess of the English bowling in the middle overs. Moreover, Stokes is getting better with every passing game in his death bowling.

As far as batting is concerned, Stokes seems to be one of the best number 5 in the world at the moment. With the ability to counter-attack at any stage of the game coupled with an improved sense of match situation makes him a dangerous proponent for the oppositions.

His finishing abilities are also an asset for the team. With an average of 37.49 and strike rate of 94.24, Stokes has both consistency as well as ruthlessness in his game and is undoubtedly one of the most potential contenders for the player of the tournament award.
