England Captain Stokes Eyes Playing Final Test Despite Injuries
England captain Ben Stokes is determined to play as a fully-fledged all-rounder in the fifth and final Test against India despite battling injuries, including cramp, general soreness, and a bicep tendon issue. His heavy workload in the series, having bowled 140 overs and taken 17 wickets at an average of 25.2, has taken a physical toll, but Stokes remains optimistic about his fitness for the decider at The Oval. He emphasized his commitment and resilience, stating that "pain is just an emotion" and that he will "run through a brick wall" for his team. Stokes recently became the fourth Englishman to score a century and take a five-wicket haul in the same Test, a performance that boosted England's position in the series. With a 2-1 lead, England aims to seal the series triumph, though Stokes and the team will carefully assess the fitness of their bowling attack before the match. His leadership encourages teammates to overcome physical challenges as they prepare for the crucial final Test.
