England To Consider Joe Root, Ben Stokes For Champions Trophy Despite Limited 50-over Appearances
The Champions Trophy: England cricket selectors are keeping their options open for the 2025 Champions Trophy as they consider including Joe Root and Ben Stokes, despite neither playing a 50-over match since the 2023 World Cup.
Root, who has been rested, and Stokes, recovering from injury, are notably absent from England’s upcoming five-match ODI series against Australia and the November tour of the West Indies. Both players are instead focused on England’s Test tours to Pakistan and New Zealand during that period.
The Champions Trophy, set to begin in mid-February 2025 in Pakistan, will be preceded by three ODIs in India at the start of the same month, serving as England’s primary preparation.
