Ben Stokes has encouraged his England team to consider themselves in “the entertainment business not the sporting business” when they take on New Zealand in the third and final Test at Headingley on Thursday.
England have won their first two Tests under Stokes, at Lord’s and Trent Bridge that were both thrilling affairs to have included big chases. Under the new captain and coach, Brendon McCullum, England are playing an attacking brand of cricket and Stokes wants that to continue this week.
