Stokes “heard a pop” as he trained in the gym in the build-up to the tournament.

Ben Stokes is set to make an overdue return to the World Cup stage this weekend but he feared his tournament was over before it had even started when he “heard a pop” while training in the gym.

“I did it in the gym…I heard it pop. So did our strength and conditioning coach. When I initially did it I thought I was done, because it’s not good hearing a pop. Stokes was put through his paces during a lengthy workout at the Wankhede Stadium on Thursday night, taking part in high-intensity fielding drills and enjoying a long batting stint in the nets. Meanwhile, Jofra Archer was also seen for the first time since joining up with the squad as a reserve, running in the outfield as he continued his recovery from a long stint on the sidelines.

“Everyone who walks on to that field for England is a match-winner in their own right. All I can try and do is what I do every single time I wear an England shirt and give my absolute all.” “Jos Buttler and Motty have got a lot on their shoulders with it being a World Cup, so I try and help out as much as I can without stepping on their toes.
