NEW DELHI: Former England skipper Nasser Hussain expressed his disappointment at Ben Stokes' decision to opt out of England's title defence for the T20 World Cup, describing his absence as a significant setback for the team.
Stokes announced on Tuesday that he has opted out of consideration for England's squad for the T20 World Cup, scheduled to be held from June 1-29 in the West Indies and USA. Instead, he expressed his intention to focus on England's upcoming Test series against West Indies and Sri Lanka, slated to commence in July.
