Summary: Early evening on Sunday 14th July 2019. Lord's Cricket Grounds, London. Something unprecedented had just happened: England had won the Cricket World Cup for the very first time. At the epicentre of England's historic triumph was Ben Stokes, the all-rounder with an insatiable appetite for The Big Occasion. When it was finally confirmed that Martin Guptill had been run out off the very last ball of New Zealand's Super Over with the scores level once again and England had won on the boundary count-back, the nation could finally breathe again. In On fire, Ben Stokes tells the story of England's electrifying first-ever World Cup triumph, as well as the summer's momentous Ashes Test series. It is the ultimate insider's account of the most nerve-shredding but riveting three-and-a-half months in English cricket history.
