It's literally a no brainer for the winner of #SPOTY this year… Ben Stokes has revolutionised the sport of test cricket forever as England Captain, which alone would be deserving of winning… But he won a t20 World Cup as well… Absolute legend and top bloke #BBCSPOTY
Stokesy looking thrilled 🀣 tbf he plays to win so fair play. #SPOTY
I really wish Ben Stokes was a footballer. He's a winner, with a winner's mentality. A modern sportsman for the modern age. Hugely likeable and admirable in equal measures. #SPOTY
Ben Stokes is one of the greatest British sporting figures in history let alone this year. Clear winner and an absolute LEGEND. #SPOTY #BenStokes
Stokes has to win #SPOTY for me. Revolutionising the way a sport is played after coming back from some real lows is one of Sports great theatrical stories. Oh and he got us over the line in a world cup final AGAIN. An absolute sporting superhero!
How did Ben Stokes not win?! Literally won England another World Cup last month 🀣 #SPOTY
Voted for @benstokes38 for @BBCSport #SPOTY. Fantastic finalists. Ben and the teams are transforming @englandcricket and therefore the first-class and recreational game 🏏. A true competitor and leader 🦁 🦁 🦁
There is a simple reason why Ben Stokes didn't win SPOTY tonight. It's not an Ashes year Everytime a cricketer has won it has been in the same year as a Home Ashes series. 56, Jim Laker 75, David Steele 81, Ian Botham 05, Andrew Flintoff 19, Ben Stokes #SPOTY #BBCSPOTY
#Spoty For me Ben Stokes. Takes over a team which had won 1 out of 17 Tests. They have just become the first Test side ever to whitewash Pakistan away. He has led the side to 9 wins in Ten. Stokes has changed the approach to the game and is such an innovative leader.
Make sure everyone from #CricketTwitter votes for Ben Stokes in this years Sports Personality of the Year. Been a splendid year for Stokesy and made a brilliant start as test match captain for England 🏏 #BBCSPOTY #SPOTY
All amazing candidates for the #SPOTY but for transforming a team in disarray, displaying the art of captaincy & masterminding a new era of Test cricket in this country, for me it has to be @benstokes38 (& he helped us win the T20 World Cup)
So powerful for @benstokes38 to front up about his mental health challenges... makes it easier for others to follow suit. A deeply impressive human. #spoty
Sometimes we have sports success in England. Occasionally we even win trophies. Very rarely do we find a talent and attitude that reinvents a 200 year old sport. Ben Stokes is only person who should win #SPOTY
Best of luck tonight @benstokes38 !!!! #SPOTY
Come on @benstokes38 100% should win it #spoty2022
Everybody knows Ben Stokes should win #spoty But it won't happen cus its not diverse enoygh and he also doesnt play in one of the minority sports that BBC show. Absolute farce of a programme won by nobodies these days
Amazed that Matt Fitzpatrick wasn't one of the nominees for #spoty2022.. very poor decision !!! @benstokes38 should win it … my love of cricket totally influencing that statement … But compared to how this show used to be back in the day … this is absolute rubbish #SPOTY
β€œWhen you go through bad times it makes the good times better.” Lovely sentiment from Ben Stokes. #spoty
Ben Stokes is in second place, another worthy achievement πŸ‘ #SPOTY
#SPOTY YES. Someone who won something. Okay I voted for Stokesy, but still yes
Ben Stokes looking overjoyed there πŸ˜‚#spoty
Only one reason why #spoty is so late. They really thought Englandshire would win the World Cup. And before you say I'm anti-English I want Ben Stokes to win.
It's gotta be Benjamin Stokes because 'Bazball' has revolutionised English Test Match Cricket (Just my opinion of course, other opinions are also valid πŸ˜‰) #SPOTY
Only one deserving winner of #SPOTY tonight and that's Ben Stokes
It's got to be Ben Stokes. Man's a living legendπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ #SPOTY
Massive congratulations to @benstokes38 runner up in #SPOTY #BBCSPOTY It was a pleasure for the team at @dronemanuk to assist Apex Cameras film 'Phoenix from the Ashes' πŸŽ₯🎬
BBC spending ages banging on and on about Womens Euros. Its obvious who they want to win. But Ben Stokes deserves to win #spoty by an absolute mile.
Still think Ben Stokes should have won but an honourable second for him. #SPOTY
No doubt Matt Fitzpatrick should have been a nominee in #spoty however all those involved have done brilliantly. Only one has changed how their sport is played. Ben Stokes.
Surely Ben Stokes wins #SPOTY tonight?
Ben Stokes is clearly so tired the poor man! 😭😭😭😭😭 Just got back from Pakistan today, will be jetlagged AF and forced to interview on #SPOTY Deserves to win tho lol
Have to be athletics loyal with my voting but MY GOD STOKES #SPOTY
Ben Stokes crack a smile mate, crikey #SPOTY #BBCSPOTY
Watching #SPOTY & I'm still just fascinated by Stokes. A quadruple threat who defies raw averages & thrives in the pressure cooker. Plays all formats and after personal tragedy took an absolute rabble to 9 Test wins out of 10 through sheer inspiration & balls. Almost incomparable
He won't but Stokes should win this hands down #SPOTY
Ben Stokes surely wins SPOTY, right? #SPOTY
#spoty #personality @benstokes38 Leader & Redemption πŸ‘ŠπŸ¦πŸ¦πŸ¦@BBCSport
How's Ben Stokes already got the second place trophy in his house for a live vote award. #SPOTY
I suppose Ben can with after he wins the ashes 5-0 next year #SPOTY
#SPOTY @benstokes38 has to be the winner
#SPOTY should have a longer shortlist. 2022 a comparatively weak year, yet all on the shortlist are world/euros champions and there's still deserving people like Ben Proud, Eilish McColgan and Matt Fitzpatrick not getting a look in
Only one winner for me @benstokes38 #spoty
They're all super but hopefully Stokesy #SPOTY πŸ‘πŸ˜ŠπŸŽ„
Voted for the legend... @benstokes38 #SPOTY
#SPOTY should be Ben Stokes. Leading England to a historic series win in Pakistan, and transforming Test Cricket in general.
Ben Stokes not winning #SPOTY after this year just shows where cricket stands in this country
Keep voting Ben Stokes!!! Also if you love golf and are annoyed Matt Fitzpatrick isn't nominated, Stokesy loves a spot of that #SPOTY
How did Ben Stokes @benstokes38 not win #SPOTY ?
#SPOTY I don't follow cricket so I don't think I understood exactly how good Ben Stokes was
