It's sad that I am not going to be able to do it further in this format. "I am just hoping that if you believe in everything that you do, you are going to have everyone behind you. People want to do things for you because of just the person you are, never mind the cricketer. You are one of those blokes who ooze class. Whatever you do, for a fact that you are going to have all ten blokes in the field to follow you. You are an incredible human being and an incredible player. "To Jos, never doubt yourself, never doubt any decisions you make, as a leader and as a captain. He had strong words of advice and encouragement for white-ball skipper Jos Buttler, who is in his first month of being the England ODI and T20I captain since international retirement of Eoin Morgan. He also picked 74 wickets at an average of 42.39 and economy rate of 6.05. Stokes ended his ODI career at 105 matches, making 2924 runs with a batting average of 39 and a strike rate of 95, including three centuries and 21 half-centuries. If you don't do that and you don't test that out when you are training, you are probably never going to know what your limit is," said Stokes in the beginning of his speech. In the field as well, we've got some unbelievable athletes and just keep pushing ourselves to the absolute extremes to realise what we are all capable of. "Not many teams can feel like that when they are seven or eight down because of what we have got in this dressing room. Not many teams still feel like, I personally was there today and feeling we're still in the game even with four overs left to go. Whether it will be with bat, ball or field, take yourselves to the extremes because that's when we are able to go out and do stuff like no one else can do as a team. "I just want to say for the team going forward, Jos (Buttler) has always mentioned is just keep pushing the boundaries of what we do on that cricket field. In the video, Stokes was seen urging his team-mates to keep pushing themselves to absolute extreme so as to realise their actual capabilities. Stokes, who captains England in Test cricket, cited playing three formats in international cricket was "unsustainable" in a hectic cricketing schedule.Īfter the match ended in a 62-run defeat, Stokes gave a stirring speech in the dressing room, posted by England on their official Twitter account.
