PV Sports Desk : All-rounder Ben Stokes looks set to miss the Ashes series against Australia later this year after England’s cricket board (ECB) said on Thursday he has undergone a second operation on a broken index finger.
The 30-year-old sustained the injury playing in the Indian Premier League in April and after the first operation he returned in July, leading England to a 3-0 one-day international series win over Pakistan despite needing injections to play.
Stokes then decided to take an indefinite break from cricket to focus on his mental health after pulling out of the home test series against India that began in August.
