England and Durham cricketer Ben Stokes was recognised for his World Cup heroics when he was honoured at a Buckingham Palace ceremony.
After last summer's triumph, Stokes was made an OBE for his services to cricket in the New Year Honours list and was presented with his honour by the Duke of Cambridge on Tuesday.
All-rounder Stokes was also crowned BBC Sports Personality of the Year after England beat New Zealand to win the men's World Cup for the first time.
