Cricket, which has been closed for a long time after the Coronavirus, is returning once again. On July 8, the first test is going to start between England West Indies. In this match, the captain of England team will be seen doing Ben Stocks. Now the discussion about his captaincy has started because Ben stock players are fantastic, but their experience with the captain is not much. Former England captain Nasir Hussain has compared the leadership of Ben Stokes to Virat Kohli, saying that in the absence of the stock Joe Root will lead the team in the first cricket Test against Southampton starting at Southampton on July 8. All-rounder Ben Stokes, who was the hero of England's victory in the World Cup, was elected captain in place of Joe Root on Tuesday for the first Test against the West Indies. Root, who has taken leave for the birth of his second child, is with his wife. England will play a three-match Test series against the West Indies in a biologically safe environment with international cricket coming back to a standstill due to the Coronavirus epidemic.

Cricketer-turned-commentator former captain Nasir Hussain said on the Star Sports show 'Cricket Connected' that what Ben Stokes usually does is a bit like Virat Kohli. He gives 100% in whatever he does. So I think he will prove to be a great captain, though he is just the acting captain. He said that the root is out for the birth of another child. I support him as a caretaker captain I think he is a great choice. The one who is also loyal to the root. Joe Root, who played 96 Tests for England, however, said that he was not in favor of giving Stokes a full-time captaincy. He said that but it is a long-term thing, as an all-rounder he has a lot of responsibility, plays in all three formats, probably going to be the IPL as well, I think he has a lot of responsibility but Ben Stokes never mind. Root said that he can become a great captain but if he takes up this responsibility full time in future, then I am a little worried about the workload on him in the future.

However, Kevin Pietersen had talked about this before. Pietersen asked in question, "Do I want to see Ben Stokes in a role? Probably not, I would like Jose Butler to captain me." Kevin feels that it would not be right to give Ben Stokes the responsibility to lead the team. Peterson had said that the players who enjoy having fun with other players are often not the best captain, they struggle after getting such responsibility. Peterson said he did not like his short stint as captain. He said, "I was struggling during that time, I did not like that responsibility. You have to change yourself. I could not get that honor in the dressing room. I used to say that he was taken lightly." Last week, Root advocated making Stokes a captain.
