Ben Stokes Joins Jacques Kallis in Elite Club with 7,000 Runs and 250 Test Wickets
Times of India·Friday, 26 June 2026
Ben Stokes achieved a historic all-round milestone in the third Test against New Zealand, becoming only the second player after Jacques Kallis to score over 7,000 Test runs and take 250 wickets. He also took four wickets as New Zealand collapsed from their overnight position, before England reached 73 for 1 in reply at tea.
Why It Matters
Stokes is one of the greatest all-rounders of the modern era, and joining Kallis — widely considered among the best ever — is a landmark that any cricket fan will appreciate.
