Ben Stokes’ hilarious reply to ‘Crybabies’ poster used by Australian newspaper
England succumbed to successive defeats in the ongoing Ashes after Australia edged the hosts in a thrilling contest at Lord’s, despite Ben Stokes’s remarkable late assault. An Australian newspaper took a dig at the English skipper after the hosts made their displeasure known regarding Jonny Bairstow’s dismissal. However, Stokes has retaliated with a funny take on the viral graphic used by the newspaper.
Pat Cummins’ side were booed off the field after the controversial stumping of Jonny Bairstow. Following Australia’s victory, several English media outlets, including experts, blasted the Aussies for tarnishing the Spirit of Cricket at the home of cricket. While an agitated Lord’s crowd labelled the Aussies as cheaters, Stokes claimed he’d never try to win the game like his counterparts.
With all the anger and jeers aimed at their players, a renowned Australian newspaper hit back at the English media, taking a jibe at English skipper Ben Stokes with a viral graphic. They used a picture of a child, morphed with Stokes’ head, labelling them as ‘CRYBABIES’. However, the English all-rounder displayed his brilliant sense of humour, compiling a witty reply for the Aussie newspaper.
