ICC faces wrath of Sachin Tendulkar fans for calling Ben Stokes ‘greatest’



MUMBAI: Ben Stokes’ heroics helped England script an improbable win in the third Ashes Test at Headingley and the International Cricket Council once again started a debate on social media by calling the all-rounder the greatest of all. The move didn’t go down well with Sachin Tendulkar’s fans.

ICC’s official Twitter handle had posted a picture of Stokes with Tendulkar and captioned it, “The greatest cricketer of all time — and Sachin Tendulkar” after the Durham cricketer starred for the hosts with an unbeaten 84 in the World Cup final in July as England lifted their maiden crown.
