Alastair Cook and Ben Stokes Showcase Their Golfing Talents

Former England cricket team captain Alastair Cook and current sensation Ben Stokes recently paid a visit to the Ryder Cup venue and decided to swap their cricket bats for golf clubs. In a video shared on YouTube, both players tried their hand at golf and engaged in a humorous exchange. Stokes, known for his explosive batting prowess in cricket, stunned everyone by smashing the golf ball on his very first shot, leaving Cook in disbelief. “Oh my God! No way. You’re a joke,” exclaimed Alastair Cook, while Ben Stokes couldn’t help but grin with satisfaction.

Stokes, set to be a significant asset for England in the upcoming Cricket World Cup 2023 commencing in October, played a pivotal role in England’s 2019 World Cup victory. His versatile skills once again provide England with a competitive edge.

England's Opening One-Day International Against Ireland Abandoned

With the rest of England’s first-choice squad resting in preparation for their departure to India next week, Joe Root requested to be included for the first match of a three-match series. This decision followed a lean performance with the bat during four matches against New Zealand. However, Root’s hopes were dashed as heavy rain prevented the possibility of a 20-over-a-side game at Headingley, his home ground.

Even as the rain subsided, the umpires remained concerned about the saturated outfield and bowlers’ run-ups, ultimately leading to the match’s abandonment. Cricket enthusiasts will have to wait for the next encounter, set to take place at Trent Bridge on Saturday.

England’s journey to defend their World Cup title begins on October 5th in Ahmedabad against New Zealand.
