T20 drama to make Ben Stokes a better cricketer ? Stuart Broad
 

LONDON: England all-rounder Ben Stokes will learn from his dreadful World Twenty20 experience and come back a stronger player, team mate Stuart Broad has said.

Stokes was hit for four successive sixes by West Indies´ Carlos Brathwaite in the last over of the T20 final, the onslaught ending England´s hopes of a second title.

Broad, the world´s top-ranked test bowler, was famously blasted for six sixes by India´s Yuvraj Singh in the 2007 tournament but used the setback as motivation and has backed Stokes to follow suit.

"I wouldn´t be the bowler I am **w without that experience," Broad told British media.

"You´re dead right, people would have been sat there thinking: ´Why did you go that way?´"But you´ve got to go with what you feel is your strength, so as a player you´ll always have things you are confident in.

I prefer a player to get it wrong going for something they believe is their strength than going to something that isn´t.

"Don´t be surprised if Stokesy **w performs at a really high level because he´ll realise what went wrong and channel it the right way -- he has an amazing talent.

"England kicks off their three-match home test ****** against Sri Lanka at Headingley on Thursday, which will be followed by an ODI ******.
