Matthew Potts Highlights Ben Stokes' Recovery for Pakistan Tour
Matthew Potts Presents Ben Stokes’ Recovery Journey
Matthew Potts reports that Ben Stokes is on track to recover from his hamstring injury in preparation for his role as an allrounder in England's cricket Test series against Pakistan this October. Stokes sustained a hamstring tear while playing for Northern Superchargers during the Hundred and was sidelined for the rest of the summer.
Since then, he has joined the England squad amidst their ongoing series against Sri Lanka, participating in net sessions at Lord's ahead of the second Test on Thursday. England is scheduled to arrive in Pakistan on October 2nd for the first Test set to take place five days later in Multan.
England's Past Success in Pakistan
- England achieved a resounding 3-0 victory during their last tour in 2022.
- Stokes managed only to bowl 35 overs in that series due to a chronic knee injury.
Stokes’ return to full fitness would be a significant boost to England's chances as they look to perform in challenging conditions.
