T20 World Cup : England’s rise to victory was characterized by a group of diverse men performing in unison. Ben Stokes is unrivaled in that zone, and if some had to overcome migration anxiety, others had to confront their own inner demons.

T20 World Cup : The majority of England’s players were having the time of their lives in the dressing room at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, where Sunday night’s celebration lasted interminably. Some cricketers came out to talk to the media after Jos Buttler’s team beat Pakistan to win the ICC Twenty20 World Cup.
Adil Rashid was conversing with a Pakistani journalist in a language that sounded familiar but was also vague. Was that Punjabi?” An Indian journalist inquired, to which the response was: It is, in fact, the Mirpuri Pahari dialect. It was a moment that summed up the cultural, social, and linguistic ties that unite people from different continents who share a common past.
When Rashid said, “, the fusion theme was in vogue. We all come from diverse backgrounds, but we are all there for the team’s cause. Our dressing room is inclusive. Even though left-arm speedster Sam Curran won the accolades earlier, Rashid’s leg spin turned into a star for England.
England’s rise to victory was characterized by a group of diverse men performing in unison. Ben Stokes is unrivaled in that zone, and if some had to overcome migration anxiety, others had to confront their own inner demons. The all-round hero who also serves as England’s Test captain exudes a Moses-like aura, bringing about miracles and convincing cricket fans that nothing is out of the question.
However, he is just as fragile. Rashid stated, “Look, he is a champion, but he is also a human; there will be anxiety.” The mind and history are both intertwined in this dual narrative. If you think back to the 2016 championship game at Eden Gardens, you will remember Ian Bishop’s memorable closing line: Carlos Brathwaite, keep the name in mind! In the game’s final over, the West Indian had hit four sixes off Stokes. Stokes wept, hid his head in his hands, and sat on his haunches after an unlikely victory.
We now have Stokes, who sought a break due to mental exhaustion, in a more recent era. It takes bravery to admit that athletes, because of their ingrained machismo, often present an appearance of invincibility. When he was dealing with mental gloom, even Virat Kohli admitted to faking intense emotion. When viewed in that light, it is remarkable that Stokes returned permanently despite the depression and baggage from his past.

Stokes just hung in during the chase, even though he wasn’t fluent, despite Pakistan’s erratic nature and strong fast bowling attack. He had recently stated, “I keep looking at the scoreboard and try to stay till the end.” Thankfully for England, Stokes kept his word.
