Ahead of England's campaign to defend their 50-over men's World Cup title in India, all-rounder Ben Stokes has made a U-turn on his previous decision to retire from one-day internationals.
Thirteen months ago, Stokes, who is also the Test captain, stepped away from the ODI format due to the taxing demands of being a multi-format player, coupled with concerns about a persistent left knee injury. This injury led to him refraining from bowling in the final three Tests of the recently concluded Ashes series against Australia.
