Ben Stokes is recovering from a knee injury and will be managing the knock throughout the IPL season.
English Test captain Ben Stokes will play as a specialist batsman for Chennai Super Kings in the initial stages of the 2023 Indian Premier League (IPL), according to batting coach Michael Hussey. But we all know that Stokes has been battling a knee injury, which has raised doubts over whether he will be able to play in the league this year. Hussey said that the franchises are working closely with the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB).
Hussey said on Tuesday, my understanding is that he is ready to play as a batsman from the beginning. Take chances on bowling. I know he bowled very lightly on Sunday due to knee injection Was
"The physios from Chennai and ECB are collaborating closely. He won't be bowling much in the first few games of the tournament, according to my understanding... it could be a few weeks. I'm not certain, but we'll try to get him bowling at some point during the tournament "Hussey went on to say.
CSK fans are visibly excited about the prospect of seeing Stokes in their famous yellow jersey. The franchise has tweeted videos of Stokes drawing loud cheers from the crowd during practise at Chepauk Stadium. Hussey stated that Stokes would be thrilled to play at the stadium, which has not hosted CSK since 2019.
