For The Love Of Cricket

Jos Buttler and Stuart Broad take you inside the England dressing-room to relive some of the greatest moments of retiring captain Ben Stokes’ career.

They recall his Headingley heroics and the 2019 World Cup final when Stokes and Buttler helped England reach the pinnacle of 50-over cricket at a raucous Lord’s.

They talk about the man behind the cricketer, the empathy and vulnerability that made him such a relatable leader and team-mate.

Jos also discusses his preparations for the T20 series against India, who could be set to hand an international debut to 15-year-old batting sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi.
