Stokes is once-in-a-generation player, England will miss him in ODIs: Buttler

Jos Buttler has described Ben Stokes as "once-in-a-generation player", while his predecessor Eoin Morgan hailed him as a "true leader" after the star allrounder retired from ODIs, leaving the cricket world shocked.

Rassie van der Dussen's century helped South Africa spoil Ben Stokes's farewell to one-day international cricket as the Proteas won by 62 runs on the England star's Durham home ground to go 1-0 up in a three-match series. Van der Dussen's career-best 134 was the cornerstone of South Africa's 335-5, their highest ODI total in England.
