Former India cricketer Wasim Jaffer would like to see England all-rounder Ben Stokes playing for India if international transfers were allowed in cricket. He responded to a tweet by Wisden India with a gif of India captain Virat Kohli.

In the gif, Kohli can be seen giving high-five to his teammate while using a Hindi cuss word. The lip-reading does make one believe that Kohli is saying the name of Stokes.

Jaffer used the gif and gave fans a good laugh with his tweet. He is popular among the fans for his strong meme game on social media since the last Indian Premier League.

Stokes is among the most valuable cricketers around the world and Jaffer believes his inclusion as an all-rounder will strengthen the Indian team.

But realistically, Team India will have to face the threat of Stokes in the upcoming months as India tours England for a five-match Test series. They will first play the ICC World Test Championship final against New Zealand and then face Joe Root and co in a 5-Test series in August-September.
