This fantastic knock came against India when England made a visit to them. It was the second ODI match of the series where India batter first. They also put up a mammoth score of 336 runs in 50 overs, by losing six wickets. But, England batters were in a different mood as they chased it down in just 43.3 overs.
Jonny Bairstow’s 124 runs and Ben Stokes’s 99 runs innings were crucial as England won that match easily with 39 balls to spare. Once he got to his fifty off 40 balls, he hit six sixes, two fours, two twos, and a single in the next 11 balls. But, he fell just one short of a hundred, getting caught down the leg side off Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s bowling.
