There is good news for England ahead of the Ashes series starting later this year. Star all-rounder Ben Stokes has been included in England's squad for this much-awaited series against Australia. The England Cricket Board (ECB) has confirmed this by issuing a statement.
It is worth noting that when the England Cricket Board (ECB) announced the team for the Ashes series earlier this month, Ben Stokes was not named in it. Since the recent home Test series against India, Stokes was on an indefinite break due to mental health issues. Due to this, he is not part of the team in the UAE leg of the IPL and also in the current T20 World Cup. Also, a few days ago he had a successful finger operation.
"Durham all-rounder Ben Stokes has been included in the England men's Test squad for the Ashes tour against Australia," the statement read. After the second operation of the left index finger, Stokes has been allowed to start training under his advisor and the ECB medical team. He will leave on November 4 with the Test experts and Lions.
Ben Stokes said, 'I took a break to prioritize my mental health and I also fixed my finger. I look forward to seeing my teammates and being on the field with them.

Ashley Giles, managing director of the England men's cricket team, said: "Ben and his management team, the team's medical staff, and I have had several conversations over the past few weeks about the very successful operation of my finger. Ben then called me to say that he was ready to return to cricket and was looking forward to a potential role in the Ashes.
"Time after time, Ben has demonstrated how important he is to the England team and his availability for the Ashes series has been very good for all of us, especially Chris (Silverwood), Joe (Root), and the rest of the players." There is news.
"Without playing for a while, we will proceed with caution over the next few weeks to ensure that he is fully prepared for all parameters of his game." We continue to alert all our people to the stress. ahead of the very busy cricket schedule. Our primary focus is on the well-being of all our players and support staff.
