While the English cricket team was touring Australia, the team captain, Ben Stokes, was the robbery victim. He fessed up to the fact that he had forgotten his bag at the King’s Cross station in London on Sunday. This information was shared on the all-official rounder’s Twitter account, where he is known for his seam bowling.
The disclosure was made on the 31-year-old man’s verified social media account, where he named the person who had stolen from him. The world-famous cricketer posted the following on his popular microblogging site Twitter:
“To whoever took my suitcase from the King’s Cross train station: I will not forgive you. I hope you can’t fit into any of my stuff, you absolute *******.”
Ben Stokes will fly to India to play for the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the upcoming Twenty-Twenty Cricket League (IPL) 2023 season after being bought at auction in December 2022 for the startling price of INR 16.25 crore. The left-handed batter will participate in the Indian Premier League for the first time since 2021. He skipped the previous season of the tournament to concentrate on improving his play in the test matches.
His workload in the bowling department will likely be reduced, given that he struggled to bowl during the test match against New Zealand in Wellington.
The all-rounder from Durham was awarded the title of Player of the Tournament in the 2017 Indian Premier League while playing for the Rising Pune Supergiants (RPS). MS Dhoni will likely call it quits after the Indian Premier League in 2023, clearing the way for Ben Stokes to take over as captain.
