I thought Stokes came out and said earlier this year that he wasn't going to play any 50 over cricket but changed his mind just prior to the WC?

He looks absolutely cooked.

They begged him to play so good on him for serving his country

Yep

215, 170, 156, 129 is not the falling value of the pound against the rupee but England's ever-decreasing totals in this World Cup.

Against Australia on Saturday in Ahmedabad, things could hit double digits.

'England fade on night that feels like start of new era'

We can only hope.

It was probably worth the punt. He had Australia running scared in the Ashes.

Add to that Ali tended to be the partnership breaker in the Ashes so I don't blame them for taking him to India.
