Nah.he only did that cos he played against useless Aussies,Stokes will never do that against any other nation

Aussies deserve never ending bagging more so than Stokes deserves credit

I don’t think any other player has done that in that type of fashion before, and may not again, he has done two miracle innings in a couple months, won’t go down as the greatest all rounder, but this year won’t be forgotten by many.

And yes, let’s keep bagging the Aussies endlessly also.

Even though he batted very well last night, Stokes has got NOTHING on Sobers. A complete insult to mention him in the same sentence as Sobers: someone who would've made millions in T20 cricket and sponsorships had he been playing in today's generation. Test average of nearly 58 from 20 years at the highest level.

Could you imagine Stokes mouthing off to bowlers from that generation such as Wes Hall, Alan Davidson, Typhoon Tyson, Lance Gibbs, Dennis Lillee (pre-back injuries) and facing them on uncovered pitches without a helmet and other protective gear, not to mention the unlimited bouncer rule? He'd be knocked out, FedEx'ed back to the nearest hospital in New Zealand before he could wake up from his slumber and knock someone else out at a nightclub.
Settle petal.

Tim Paine among a host of big names rested from three-day game, with Usman Khawaja to take over the captaincy and Alex Carey called in

Australia XI to face Derbyshire: Usman Khawaja (c), Cameron Bancroft, Alex Carey (wk), Marcus Harris, Marnus Labuschagne, Mitch Marsh, Michael Neser, Peter Siddle, Steve Smith, Mitch Starc, Matthew Wade



Paine could be on thin ice by the looks of it.
