The Ashes: 'Nothing To Worry About': Stokes Plays Down Injury Concerns Ahead Of Ashes

By IANS News June 05, 2023 • 10:55 AM View: 918

England Test captain Ben Stokes played down concerns over his injury ahead of The Ashes against Australia, saying his long standing knee injury was "nothing to worry about".

The 31-year-old on Saturday hobbled after taking the catch of Curtis Campher at short fine leg but he continued to be on the field on day three of off-one Test against Ireland, a game England won by 10 wickets with over a day to spare. He later revealed that there was nothing to worry about his injury.
