By Saurabh Sharma May 31, 2019 • 12:07 PM View: 1629

London, May 31 (CRICKETNMORE): It was a stunning one-handed catch from Ben Stokes that stole the limelight on the opening day as England's campaign got underway emphatically in the 2019 World Cup.

On Tuesday, Stokes was back to his dominant best in the 104-run win against South Africa, as he top-scored with 89 as England posted 311/8 in their full quota of 50 overs. And then on the field, he helped with a run-out and two wickets as the tournament favourites bundled the Proteas for 207 in 39.5 overs.
