Dropped England Test Captain Stokes To Turn Out For Durham In County Championship
Dropped England Test: England Test captain Ben Stokes will make his return to competitive cricket for Durham after being named in their 15-member squad for the County Championship match against Northamptonshire beginning at Chester-le-Street near Durham on Friday.
Stokes, along with fast bowler Gus Atkinson, were left out of England’s ongoing second Test against New Zealand at The Oval due to investigations pending into a nightclub incident in London. Both Stokes and Atkinson, however, have been cleared to feature in domestic cricket.
While seam-bowling all-rounder Stokes will line up for Durham at Chester‑le‑Street, Atkinson is expected to be part of Surrey’s squad for their fixture against Glamorgan in Cardiff.
