I really can't think of any player that doesn't really deserve a place
Stokes is a bit of a hunch but most proper all rounders are a hunch since they really being picked to balance the squad/team and it is impossible to find one player that will be in the top 7 batsman/top 4 bowlers in the country at the same time.
Which is why most of the time All rounders get fast tracked they would get picked if they are around the top 10 batsman or top 10 bowlers in the country.
