Ben Stokes is a genuine all-rounder and a key member of the England ODI team. In the ongoing World Cup, Stokes is England's second-highest run scorer with 291 runs from seven matches at an average of 58.20 while with the ball in hand, Stokes has six wickets from seven matches.

The burly all-rounder has made a massive impact with the bat in hand and has played the anchor's role in the middle overs while also changing gears in the final overs. Stokes has three half-centuries, an 89 v South Africa in England's opening game and yet another 89 v Australia.

His 89-ball 82 against Sri Lanka is yet another knock of prominence for Stokes while with the ball in hand, Stokes' 3/23 against Bangladesh has been his most important performance thus far.

One of the world's best all-rounders going around, Stokes will undoubtedly hold the key against India.
