Stokes scoops ‘Man of the Series’ as England win 2-1

Durham all-rounder Ben Stokes scooped the Man of the Series award as England overcame Bangladesh to win the One-Day series.

The 25-year-old capped off a fiery series by hitting a measured 47 not out, leading England’s run chase of 278.

It took his tally to 148 runs in total across the three matches after making a maiden ODI ton in the first match at Dhaka.

That ton came at just over a run-a-ball and was a second consecutive personal best in the format after hitting 75 against Pakistan last month.

His attentions now turn to the forthcoming two-match Test series before the tour of India commences later next month.
