Reading:Ben Stokes has promised there is ‘more left in this tank’ following recent injuries.
“There is a lot more left in this tank, a lot more blood sweat and tears to go through for our team and this shirt.
“There’s a reason I have a phoenix permanently tattooed on my body.”
Stokes concluded his message bluntly, adding: “See you on the field.* Some* consolation.”
hamstring injury
Stokes suffered the injury during the third Test against New Zealand in Hamilton earlier this month, a series England won 2-1.
On Sunday, the 33-year-old all-rounder, who has not played in an ODI since the 2023 World Cup, was left out of England’s squad for the Champions Trophy in February and March.

“Ben Stokes has been ruled out of all cricket for at least three months after further assessment confirmed he suffered a torn left hamstring,” an England and Wales Cricket Board spokesman said on Monday evening.
“The Durham all-rounder is expected to undergo surgery in January.”
Despite playing against New Zealand, Stokes had previously missed the summer series against Sri Lanka and the first Test against Pakistan in the autumn due to a hamstring problem.
Stokes suffered a hamstring problem while bowling 37 in the third Test against New Zealand and handed the captaincy reins to Ollie Pope on the field.
