IND vs Eng: The Swordsman vs. Showman – Ravindra Jadeja or Ben Stokes, which stands long? , Cricket news

Four tests later, the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy keeps looking for new content to boil the pot. The series has displayed two best all-rounders of this generation, Ben Stokes and Ravindra Jadeja in its best form. One of the most talked moments came to Lord’s, where a picture of Stokes hugging Jadeja went viral. It was a demonstration of honor after Jadeja’s bravery attempt with the bat, even though India decreased and England took a 2–1 lead in the five match series.But the story took a new turn in Old Trafford. With hanging in the match balance, Stokes handed over Jadeja to draw a hand. Jadeja refused. Instead, he stood tall and produced a luxurious test hundred, directing India to protect from nearly-possible positions. This time, it was Jadeja – and India – who came to the top.Go beyond the border with our YouTube channel. Subscribe now!He refused to join hands, or take one, created an uproar. This was an indication of how much the competition matters to both players, and how their rivalry is made not only on mutual respect, but on terrible competition.Ben Stokes and Ravindra Jadeja are two of the finest all -rounders in modern cricket, but their strength is in very different areas. One is a consistent artist who provides value in every match. The second is a player designed for the greatest moments, which stands against the wall.

Stokes has played more cricket overall. He has depicted 115 tests compared to Jadeja’s 84. He has batted in 206 innings, while Jadeja has 126. Naturally, Stokes has scored more runs with 7,032, while Jadeja has 3,824. Stokes also moves ahead with 14 and has 35 fifties. The highest score of 258 shows what kind of innings he can produce when he goes inside.However, Jadeja is more with bat. His Test batting average is 37.86 as compared to 35.7 of Stokes. Jadeja brings far more value with the ball. He has taken 330 wickets at an average of 25.07. Stokes has 230 wickets at 31.65. Jadeja has selected 15 five-vick halls and 3 ten-vetic halls. Stokes have five more zero in those departments respectively.In recent years, Stokes has not bowled regularly due to injury concerns. But in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy against India, he is a top pick between England bowlers. Despite fitness issues, he is going to take a major wicket with 17 wickets. At Lord’s, he bowled a marathon 10-over spell, which set the tone with control and aggression. In Old Trafford, he bowled with a shoulder through a visual pain and pinned a well -set KL Rahul, leading to a third wicket stand of 188 runs.

Nevertheless, even in a series where Stokes has produced some of his best work with the ball, Jadeja has made him better with the bat. Jadeja has scored 454 runs in this series compared to Stokes’ 304. While Stokes leads the wickets, Jadeja’s overall contribution is important in both departments.What Stokes has to do as such a unique contestant in world cricket is not just their number. This is their influence in moments of high pressure. Whether it is the final of the 2019 World Cup at Lord’s, the same year the Handlingley Ashes Miracle, or the 2022 T20 World Cup final, Stokes has made England clutch player in the most grand stages.

He cannot be the most consistent batsman or most reliable bowler every time he takes the field, but in the decisive moments of major competitions, Stokes has moved. No wonder Virat Kohli posted once, “I was not joking about calling Ben Stokes against the most competitive Blok.” Not due to its average, but because of its effect when it matters the most.

Meanwhile, Jadeja is a cricketer you can count during the day, during the day. He conforms to the formats, provides control with the ball, and has become a reliable batsman in difficult situations. But despite his excellence, Jadeja often goes under the radar. He does not always receive the same attention or appreciation as others in world cricket, even if his number is the best.R Ashwin recently reported that the media often fails to appreciate Jadeja’s continuous performance. According to Ashwin, Jadeja is just doing one thing when the team is not doing well, even if it quietly distributes repeatedly to all departments.The legendary all-rounder Kapil Dev also weighed, saying that Jadeja is better than Stokes in terms of all-round value. It is coming from someone who defined the role again, it speaks the volume.Both are great in their rights. If Stokes inspires his Bravo and saves knockout punches in critical junctions, Jadeja is a swordbaaz, whose steel is faster with age.
