The monotony of being in a bio-bubble might be a concern for some but not for English all-rounder Ben Stokes who feels the isolating measure at least lets him play the sport he loves while the world battles a raging pandemic. In an interview to PTI, the world's premier all-rounder spoke about life in a bio- bubble amid the COVID-19 threat and host of other issues including his role as an opener in T20 cricket for Rajasthan Royals. "It obviously comes with its challenges, you know being away from the family, being in the same place for a long period of time, it can get a bit monotonous after a certain point of time," Stokes said.

But he feels that things need to be put in perspective to understand that a little monotony with all comforts puts sportsmen in a better position than a lot of other people. "We would much rather be in a bubble playing cricket and doing what we love than sitting at home not being able to do that. We need to put things into perspective. There are millions in the world suffering a lot more than what we are," he reasoned.
