In the second Test, which has earned the moniker- “miracle at the Basin,” the hosts edged past the English brigade, winning the match by just one run. However, Stokes could not bring out his A-game in the away series due to injury issues.
Following the second game, Stokes revealed in the post-match presser that he will be available for IPL 2023. The franchise roped in the star for a jaw-dropping price of Rs 16.25 crore at the mini-auction, held in December last year.
