New Delhi : England star allrounder Ben Stokes was in his best form when he came to bat against West Indies in the 2nd Test match. He scored brilliant 176 runs off 356 balls to help England score a brilliant 469 for nine in the first innings.

While scoring his hundred during the game he played several shots which were in accordance to the sports manual but there were a few shots which even surprised him. Particularly, the one he smashed on the second ball of the 114th over.

Stokes – with a straight bat and minimal effort sent Joseph's ball for a six over the long-on boundary. Stokes’ reaction of ‘disbelief’ after the shot is epic.

Watch the surprising shot by Ben Stokes:


West Indies lost opener John Campbell and at stumps, they were 32/1 with Kraig Brathwaite in the middle with night watchman Alzarri Joseph.

Brief scores: England 469/9 (Ben Stokes 176, Dom Sibley 120; Roston Chase 5/172) vs West Indies 32/1 (Alzarri Joseph* 14, John Campbell 12; Sam Curran 1/8)
