The Hundred: Ben Stokes – England captain to play for Northern Superchargers after three-year absence -Dlight News

Ben Stokes will play in this year’s edition of The Hundred after the conclusion of England’s Test series against West Indies.

The England Men’s Test captain missed last year’s competition but will be available for four games for Andrew Flintoff’s Northern Superchargers team this season.

Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Harry Brook and Jamie Smith will also be available immediately after the end of the third Test match at Edgbaston, scheduled to start on July 26.

The availability of England Men’s bowlers will be dependent on workload and international selection, but Gus Atkinson, Matthew Potts and Dillon Pennington are all likely to feature from the early rounds. Chris Woakes is expected to be available in August.

It is expected that England Men’s players picked in the squad for the first Test match against Sri Lanka at Old Trafford on Wednesday August 21 will be available for The Hundred eliminator (Saturday August 17) and The Hundred final (Sunday August 18), depending on player role and workload management.

England Women’s players are available for The Hundred with their summer international commitments now complete following the conclusion of their T20I series against New Zealand.

A number of replacement players have also been confirmed, covering England Men’s international selection in the early rounds and injury.

India’s Deepti Sharma will now be a part of The Hundred, as will Australia’s Kim Garth, as well as New Zealand duo Tim Southee and Mitchell Santner.
