Ben Stokes was not the driving force behind England's white-ball revolution.

It's safe to assume that when Stokes has some quiet time on Sunday night

[{"selector":"#anim-cab68d8d-b1d4-4754-9e82-d8469f583c16 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-34.179687404002955%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":500,"duration":4000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}]

after England's promised "wild celebrations," he'll think about the one name

[{"selector":"#anim-b0087160-b907-422c-857b-2671d9392a54 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-28.88880260142661%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":500,"duration":4000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-8ce2bf75-cc1b-4d6f-9beb-7e6547288939","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":500,"duration":4000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-63005d7d-6c62-48f1-8748-02344b0ee351","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(115.06409%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":500,"duration":4000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Stokes just didn't luck out that time. In the final over, with West Indies needing an improbable 19 off 6

[{"selector":"#anim-ef7dfbd6-83a8-4444-842b-e53cdd3cffe3 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-34.179687404002955%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":500,"duration":4000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-101a3b7c-4485-46fb-ace4-b03220033bdc","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":500,"duration":4000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f9d75771-2f6c-44e2-8924-c2cbf405d0e2","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(114.76922%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":500,"duration":4000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

As the match reached its final stages, Brathwaite sealed the victory by hitting Stokes
