English All-Rounder Ben Stokes Highly Unlikely To Play In The Ashes

By IANS News September 18, 2021 • 13:59 PM View: 1323

England all-rounder Ben Stokes is 'increasingly unlikely' to feature in the Ashes series in Australia later in the year. It is also said that England's tour of the West Indies early next year could be seen as a more likely time for his return to international cricket.

Stokes withdrew ahead of the start of England's Test series against India in August and September for managing his mental well-being and recovery from a finger injury. Stokes wasn't picked in the England squad for the upcoming men's T20 World Cup in the UAE. He has not played any form of cricket since two appearances for Northern Superchargers in The Hundred in late July.
