The 31-year-old Stokes stated his knee is much better than it was in New Zealand and he will take his location in the England group as an allrounder versus Ireland at Lord’s and then Australia.
“What I have actually done is I have actually got myself in a position where I’m unable to recall and be sorry for or state I’ve not offered myself the very best chance to play a complete function with the ball this summertime,” Stokes stated. “I’ve worked exceptionally difficult with the medical group in Chennai, communicating with the ECB people. I have actually got myself into a location where I seem like back at 2019, 2020 area in regards to my own body and physical fitness and whatever like that.”
