England coach Matthew Mott confirmed that star all-rounder Ben Stokes and pacer Jofra Archer will get the opportunity to regain their fitness for featuring in the 2024 T20 World Cup.
Former Pakistan cricketer Mohammed Hafeez took an indirect jibe at India's star batter Virat Kohli but England's former cricketer Michael Vaughan came in Kohli's defence with a hilarious reply.
Stokes, who has been dealing with knee problems, rejoined the team to defend the 2019 World Cup title but he may miss the match due to a niggle in his hip.
Stokes batted as a specialist batter in the final three Tests of this summer's Ashes series and will do so again when he returns to England's ODI squad
With Ben Stokes coming out of retirement and a bunch of other experienced, multi-skilled middle-order batters in the group, Brook was edged out in the World Cup squad.
