Ben Stokes to Leave IPL Early for Ireland and Ashes Series
England’s star all-rounder, Ben Stokes, will leave the Indian Premier League (IPL) early to join the England squad for their upcoming test series against Ireland and the much-anticipated Ashes series against Australia. Stokes, who is currently playing for the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), is expected to leave the IPL after their match April 29.
Stokes’ decision to leave the IPL early is a huge boost for England ahead of a busy summer of cricket. The all-rounder is one of the key players in the England squad and his presence will be crucial in both the test series against Ireland and the Ashes series against Australia.
CSK Will Miss Him
Stokes’ departure from the CSK will be a blow for the team. The player is in good form with bat and ball. His absence will leave a big void in the team’s line-up and they will have to find a way to cope without their star player.
Commitment to the England Team
Stokes’ early departure from the IPL also shows his commitment to the England team and his desire to play a key role in their success. The all-rounder has been one of the busiest cricketers in recent times, playing in multiple formats of the game and for various teams across the world. His decision to prioritize England’s international commitments over the IPL is a testament to his dedication and passion for the game.
Stokes, A Key Player of England
The upcoming test series against Ireland and the Ashes series against Australia are crucial for England, and Stokes’ presence in the team will be important. The all-rounder has a stellar record in test cricket, and currently ranked at no. 4 in ICC Men’s Test Player Rankings. His ability to turn the game on its head with both bat and ball makes him a key player in any conditions.
Players Workload
His departure also raises questions about the scheduling of the tournament. The IPL has often been criticized for its packed schedule, which leaves little room for players to rest and recover between matches. The fact that Stokes has to leave the tournament early to join the England squad highlights the issue of player workload and the need for a more balanced schedule.
International Cricket Holds the Highest Value
Stokes’ early departure from the IPL also shows the importance of test cricket and the need for players to prioritize international commitments over franchise cricket. While the IPL is undoubtedly one of the biggest and most lucrative tournaments in the world, it is still international cricket that holds the highest value and prestige.
Ashes, One of The Most Awaiting Cricket Series
The Ashes series is one of the most eagerly anticipated contests in world cricket and Stokes’ presence will be crucial for England’s chances. The all-rounder played a starring role in England’s last Ashes series and he is expected to reapeat the same.
