Ben Stokes was in fine form for Surrey against Derbyshire, scoring 53 runs with 11 fours at the Racecourse Ground.

Stokes could have been part of England's demolition of Pakistan in Leeds, but instead chose to participate in county cricket, where he contributed significantly with both bat and ball for his team.
