Stokes is a major doubt to face Sri Lanka after picking up a hamstring injury while playing in the Hundred
Stokes had to be carried off the pitch by team physio James Pipe and strength and conditioning coach Harry Booker, 10 days before England’s first Test against Sri Lanka begins at Old Trafford.due to a broken finger, England will likely lose two of the three players to have played in every Test under
Woakes is certainly not a like-for-like swap for England’s captain – his Test batting average in England is 33.28, compared to Stokes’ 40.36 – but he is more than capable of filling the role against Sri Lanka.This leaves Olly Stone and Matthew Potts as the options to complete an incredibly strong bowling attack, already including Gus Atkinson, Mark Wood, Woakes and Shoaib Bashir.
He is currently the sixth-highest run scorer in the Hundred and has taken the second-most wickets . He took a hat-trick, a five-fer and scored 50 against London Spirit earlier this month. At just 23, wicketkeeper-batsman Cox averages 69 for Essex since joining this year, ruthlessly punishing former side Kent in the County Championship by scoring 116* from 89 balls in their first meeting and 207 from 255 in his second. That’s a very Bazball strike rate.
