Ben Stokes's Exit May Hurt But England Have Multiple All-Rounder Options

By IANS News July 31, 2021 • 22:17 PM View: 4013

Ben Stokes's decision to pull out of the Test series against India due to mental health concerns and fractured finger may hurt England since he is their ace all-rounder. However, the home side still has more options than India in that department.

Even as India's pace bowling all-rounder option in Hardik Pandya remains unfit to perform Test duties and has been playing only limited overs cricket, England have Sam Curran, who turned out to be the difference in the last series against India at home.
