CricketWIMB - Stokes better than Flintoff? - Discuss

[PSRB]

I don't think the stats quite back it up yet but think he will be. Not quite as talismanic a character but definitely a better batsmen and arguably almost there as a bowler

Agree that he's a better bat, but his bowling is nowhere near Flintoff at his best. On his day (usually in English conditions and usually against Australia, of course) Flintoff was as good a fast bowler as you'll see.

Not sure if Flintoff ever had as bad an over at a crucial moment as Stokes against the Windies. Yeah, I know it wasn't real cricket but still.
