Former England captain Nasir Hussain slammed Ben Stokes to his “foolish” response, when he threw the ball to Harry Brook, which looked like a scar of protest.Indian batsmen Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar refused to call the fourth Test of England captain Ben Stokes and stop a draw for a draw before the last hour of playing.After working hard to earn a reliable draw, Jadeja and Washington – batting at 89 and 80 respectively – denied the proposal of Stokes after reaching the umpire, who did not end the England captain.Nasar Hussain said on Sky Sports, “I had no problem with it. I mean, I know that England had any problem with it.”“They are a little tired – tired bowlers, tired legs – they wanted to land. Both the leads worked hard to go in the 80s and 90s; they wanted hundreds of Tests.“Stokes did not need to bowl Brooke, and it seemed a bit foolish at the end, but we make these things too much. They played well, they were entitled to a draw, they were entitled to stay there at the end.“All credit for India. It is only England’s draw under this Bazball rule-due to another rain on this land. It was a draw.

Do you agree with Nasir Hussain’s view that Ben Stokes’ response was’ silly ‘?

Stokes had some words to say, and Zak Croly and Ben Docket were also seen to be interrogating why India wanted to be taken.“Do you want to score a hundred against Harry Brook?” Stokes sarcastically asked, Jadeja only replied, “I can’t do anything.”A smiling Jadeja maintained his grace and closed them, as India – according to the rules – were well within their rights to continue batting.Looks like a scar of protest, Stokes introduced Harry Brook into an attack, and Jadeja hit him for six to complete his third Test.
