B.A. Stokes 6-22 v West IndiesBack to boards

Ben Stokes took a Test best 6-22 to claim a spot on the bowling Honours Boards for the first time in a dominating display with the ball versus West Indies in the summer of 2017.

In the first Lord's Test match to start in September, Stokes, who hit the fastest Test century ever scored at Lord’s in 2015, used the conditions to his advantage to become the eighth player, and sixth from England, to appear on both batting and bowling Honours Boards.

The all-rounder’s devastating spell with the ball saw him dismiss Kieran Powell, Roston Chase, Shane Dowrich, Jason Holder, Kemar Roach and Shannon Gabriel as West Indies fell to a dismal total of 123 all out during their first innings.

England would only go on to score 194 all out themselves in reply, but would eventually go on to win the Test by nine wickets to wrap up the series.
