Ben Stokes crowned Wisden's leading cricketer

Ben Stokes has ended Virat Kohli's three-year reign as Wisden's leading cricketer in the world after playing a starring role in England's World Cup win last year. The 2020 Wisden Cricketers' Almanack, published on Thursday, crowns the swashbuckling all-rounder as the sport's pre-eminent player. Last England player to receive the honour was Andrew Flintoff in 2005.
