On Thursday, Ben Stokes was at it again as he hit back at a fan with an epic reply after he suggested that the England cricketer prefers to turn up for the IPL over England.
Well, it happened after Ben spoke to the media virtually, where he claimed that he is looking forward to the upcoming season of the IPL. The video of the virtual interview was shared by SKY Sports Cricket. In the comments section, a fan accused Stokes of chasing money by playing in IPL 2021 and also claimed that Stokes would be too tired to bowl once he puts on the England jersey next. The fan wrote:
“Chasing a pound note again, once back in an england shirt will be too tired to bowl”

The tweet soon caught the attention of Ben Stokes, who came up with a mouth-shutting reply to the troll. Stokes didn’t take the comment too kindly and was seen engaging with the troll. In his tweet, he asked the fan to name an instance where he refrained from bowling for England. Stokes wrote:
“When have I ever been to tired to bowl in a England shirt pal???”
