Pakistan Reporter Confuses Ben Stokes With Broken English, England Star's Reaction Goes Viral

England cricket captain Ben Stokes found himself in a humorous situation when a Pakistani journalist, during a press conference before the third Test in Rawalpindi, struggled to frame a question in English. The reporter was attempting to ask whether England could replicate their massive 823-run total from the first Test in Multan, but the language barrier caused some confusion.

As the journalist made multiple attempts to form the question, Stokes appeared bemused but remained patient. After finally understanding the query, Stokes responded with a simple, good-natured reply: "That would be nice." His reaction quickly went viral, with fans sharing the video of the interaction widely on social media platforms.

The Viral Moment

The press conference occurred ahead of the series decider in Rawalpindi, where England is aiming for a second consecutive series win in Pakistan after their 3-0 victory two years ago. Stokes’ response, paired with his visible confusion, left fans in stitches. Despite the difficulty in communication, Stokes handled the situation with grace, and the video has since spread across the internet, highlighting the lighter side of cricket interviews.

A High-Stakes Match

England, fresh off their dominant performance in the first Test, faced a strong Pakistan side that leveled the series in Multan. Pakistan’s unchanged XI, featuring spinners Sajid Khan and Noman Ali, remains confident after their decisive bowling display in the second Test. England, meanwhile, made a few changes, recalling pacer Gus Atkinson and spinner Rehan Ahmed in an attempt to strengthen their side for the final match.

As both teams prepare for the series decider, the viral press conference moment has added a bit of levity to the otherwise tense atmosphere surrounding the match.

England’s Quest for Victory

With Stokes opting to bat first in Rawalpindi, England is determined to maintain their dominance in Pakistan. The visitors’ lineup features strong batters like Joe Root and Harry Brook, with Stokes himself leading from the front. Fans are eager to see whether England can replicate their massive performance from the first Test or if Pakistan can pull off a series win on home soil.
