Ben Stokes devastated on missing Sri Lanka series ()
London, May 25। England all-rounder Ben Stokes has said he is “devastated” to miss out on the rest of the ongoing Test cricket series against Sri Lanka after undergoing a knee operation.
The 24-year-old has been sidelined for six weeks. He injured himself while bowling in the first Test which England won quite convincingly by an innings and 88 runs.
Stokes suffered a cartilage tear that he says has been "an ongoing issue for two to three years" but which he has "managed to play through until now", reported the BBC on Tuesday.
