"There are no issues with him. He has rested well and is raring to go against Kolkata tomorrow," the Pune official told IANS over phone after Steve Smith's side touched base in Kolkata on Tuesday evening.

Stokes missed out on Pune's home encounter with KKR when the former champions won by seven wickets with 11 balls to spare.

KKR are second on the points table with 14 points from 10 games while Pune are fourth, having collected 12 points from their 10 outings.
