In the debate over who would make a better captain, former England cricketer Nasser Hussain chose Ben Stokes over Pat Cummins. Hussain complimented the captains of both teams for their leadership and the assistance they provide to their teams’ players and captains, but he gave the English captain a minor advantage over Cummins.
The premier all-rounder for England has scored 360 runs and taken three wickets in four Test matches, according to an analysis of the performances of both captains in the Ashes 2023 series. In contrast, Cummins has taken 16 wickets in four games to lead the Australian team in series wicket-taking. He also contributed significantly during the opening Test, making an unbeaten 44 runs to lead his team to victory.
Ben Stokes does not operate under a captaincy by committee. Mr. Nasser Hussain
“In my opinion, success is still paramount, and I think that England also holds this deep-seated conviction. Recently, they discovered a strategy that boosts their odds of winning. That messaging was therefore a little excessive. However, what Stokes did superbly with the bat after that demonstrated to his side how to get the proper balance. When England was down six players at Lord’s, he attacked after absorbing pressure, according to Hussain’s Daily Mail column.
“At Headingley, he went after Todd Murphy when there was still one wicket to lose. There hasn’t been a finer example of what Bazball is about than how England batted at Old Trafford; with Stokes, there isn’t a captaincy by committee. He is without a doubt the one in command. Despite the fact that England should have been more ruthless in the first two Test matches, he continued, “I give Stokes the edge over Cummins because of how far his team has come under his leadership.
Speaking of the 2023 Ashes, the Ben Stokes-led team is now down 1-2 in the five-match series, while the Australian team won the Ashes after drawing the last Test at Old Trafford. By winning the fifth and final game at the Oval, the home team will now try to even the series. The Pat Cummins-led team will play England’s side in the fifth round at the Oval beginning on July 27.
