England vice-captain Ben Stokes is set to return to action next month in the County Championship after a scan on his left knee did not reveal any new problems.
Stokes suffered from knee issues during England's recent tour of the West Indies and admitted earlier this week that he was not allowed to train yet as a precaution. "I think it was pretty obvious that I was struggling with my knee a bit out in the Caribbean," Stokes said on the Round the Wicket podcast.
"At the moment there is no training. So I will go and get the scans and then we can find out what's going on, and then hopefully can make a plan from there."
