Ben Stokes eyes “positive” approach to England captaincy
Ben Stokes has vowed to captain England with the same attacking instincts that have made him one of the most exciting players in international cricket.
Stokes is increasingly certain to earn a temporary promotion during next week’s first Test against the West Indies, with regular skipper Joe Root expecting his second child in the coming days.
Ordinarily Root would return to lead the team at the earliest possible opportunity but, given the strict protocols around the series’ ‘bio-secure’ bubble, he will need to isolate himself from team-mates for a week following his trip to the maternity ward.
