Men’s ODI WC: Hip Niggle Could Force Ben Stokes To Miss Tournament Opener Against New Zealand, Says Jos Buttler

ODI World Cup: A hip niggle has meant that talismanic all-rounder Ben Stokes is in doubt to miss England’s opening match of 2023 Men’s ODI World Cup against New Zealand in Ahmedabad on Thursday, said captain Jos Buttler.

Stokes, the Player of the Match in the 2019 final between the teams playing Thursday’s tournament opener, came out of ODI retirement in August to play for England in their title defence. After smashing a fine 182 against New Zealand, Stokes hasn’t played competitively, and even missed England’s warm-up match against Bangladesh in Guwahati.
