Stokes has been an absolute revelation as the England skipper under the coaching of Brendon McCullum who has become famous for his “BazBall” way of cricket. Stokes, who is an aggressive all-rounder, has led the team by example in Test cricket with brilliant performances with bat and ball.
Stokes played a solid role in England's campaign at the T20 World Cup and fans have been asking him to come out of ODI retirement to play the ODI World Cup in 2023. While no decision has been made till now, the England team management has hinted at possible talks with the cricketer.
"I deliberately made an effort to leave Ben alone," England ODI coach Matthew Mott said.
"The issue about if he wants to play: we don't need to know for a while. Halfway through that summer, gauging how he is feeling physically and mentally that will be his call if he wants to put himself up for selection,” he added in a recent interaction.
