Pointless exercise now but can't help wondering if it would have made a difference for Stokes to have had his operation earlier instead of playing at the World Cup. He's said in interview no possibility of bowling until the summer which makes a huge difference to the balance of the side. Mind, he's also now 10kg lighter than last summer which hopefully will help.
