ENG V WI: Don't Feel It's Necessary To Change, Says Stokes On Naming Same Playing 11 For 3rd Test
During West Indies: England captain Ben Stokes backed his playing XI for the third and final Test against West Indies saying he doesn't feel the need to make any change in the team. England have the upper hand in the series with a 2-0 unassailable lead after registering impressive wins at the Lord's and Trent Bridge respectively. England refrained from giving a recall to Matthew Potts or handing a debut to Dillon Pennington at Edgbaston.
"At the moment we have stuck with the same team because we don't feel it's necessary to change," Stokes said on the eve of the match.
In the ongoing series, England made only one change in the second Test as they brought in Mark Wood in place of retired James Anderson. Wood made a lasting impression with his sheer pace that left the West Indies batters clueless.
