Indian team is different from New Zealand

Ben Stokes does not agree that the Indian team is a step ahead of New Zealand. And says that a change in the rival team will not change his style of play. Ben Stokes said in a press conference held on the eve of the match at Edgbaston. We have recently defeated the best team in the world (New Zealand).

Ready to compete with Indian team

“We understand what we do well but we also see who we are playing against,” he said. But changing the opponent does not mean that we should change. “I wasn’t watching cricket last summer, I didn’t watch most of it (India-England match). But there is one thing with India that it was interesting to see the way Virat (Kohli) led the team in Tests. So I am ready to compete again.
