It was Stokes' 10th Test hundred which helped England recover from the early blows at the Old Trafford.

Vaughan, who has led all-rounders like Andrew Flintoff during his captaincy days, feels Stokes is the most effective player for England currently.

"England's best player England's best fielder England's most impactful bowler England's best batsman at the moment delivers once again @benstokes38 is a freak ... nothing he cannot do #TestCricket #ENGvWI," Vaughan tweeted.

Along with Stokes, Dom Sibley scored his second Test century in 312 balls. He was dismissed on 120 as England declared the first innings on 469/9. West Indies were 32/1 in 14 overs at stumps on the second day.
