Former batsman Ramiz Raja feels that Pakistan should take advantage of all-rounder Ben Stokes’ absence from the England squad for the remainder of the ongoing Test series. The hosts lead the three-Test series 1-0 following their three-wicket win in Manchester last week
The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) had earlier announced that Stokes will miss the final two Tests due to personal reasons and Raja feels Pakistan must exploit his absence to make a comeback into the series.
“He (Stokes) is one of the most talented all-rounders in the world. Also, his name is now being taken in the list of one of the best ever,” Raja said.
