WATCH- Ben Stokes and Stuart Broad involved in a heated argument on the field: On the cricket field, we all have seen many times cricketers getting in a heated argument with other team’s player. But it is a very rare chance when from the same team, players get involved in high voltage argument on the field. One of such rare cases has made its impact in the ongoing Test match between England and South Africa. Actually, in between the overs English player Ben Stokes and Stuart Broad involved in a heated argument.
Meanwhile, the England team was struggling as the South Africa team was busy in increasing the lead in the second innings. English players were looking frustrated. And then after a South African wicket, in the frustration, Stokes and Broad exchanged some hard words when they were in the team huddle. It looked like Ben Stokes was the one who started the exchange before Stuart Broad retaliated.
Meanwhile, the commentator Michael Holding was also surprised by the incident. “Well that doesn’t look like a very friendly conversation, does it?” said Michael Holding said in a commentary. “I’m not sure what started it, but hopefully it will end soon.”
On the other hand, former England captain Nasser Hussain said: “England’s hot in the weather and not feeling well. I’m pleased that a few words were exchanged, to be honest. (They’ve) got a problem with each other, Broad has said something in the huddle that Stokes is not amused with and England’s vice-captain picks him up on it. I don’t mind that at all.”

At the end of Day 3, Team England managed quite nicely to get back into the game. England now has to score another 255 runs to win the match with remaining 9 wickets in hand. It all happened because of a good inning from the English opener Rory Burns as he scored 77 runs in the second innings and still batting along with Joe Denly. Now both players will continue the innings on the fourth day of the ongoing match.
