While Shakib Al Hasan might be the best all-rounder in the world, Ben Stokes is certainly the most explosive one. After being in a physical fight outside a bar in Bristol, the England selectors refrained from selecting him in the team till the case was resolved.



He has, however, been called back into the national setup after pleading not guilty in the magistrates court. He is set to play against New Zealand on Sunday when they take on the Three Lions.


Despite not having played in a long time and lacking match practice, captain Eoin Morgan affirmed that their star player will be in the starting XI.


"He looks in great nick, he's hit the ground running since he's been involved and he's been himself, which is great to see," Morgan said.

"He might be better for the more games he does play and feel more comfortable coming back ... it is his first game in quite a long time."


Morgan’s words come after Stokes was seen middling the ball in the nets while also bowling with venom when practicing with it.



The all-rounder isn’t the only one that returned to the English squad as Joe Root, Moeen Ali, Chris Woakes and Jonny Bairstow are also back into the ODI team after missing the T20I tri-nation series against New Zealand and Australia.
