[Cricket] Keysy

Stokes is an exceptional cricketer but this is far from ideal. Bat, bowl and captain. And do it for 5 tests. With a shit team around you. It was a disaster with Freddy Flintoff and he had far better players around him.

Keysy Weasy far too Matey Watey with the England family - for reference to see how this ends in tears see the disintegration, deterioration and demotion of Sussex CCC as their infamous "family" crashed over the last 5 years.

I fear for Stokes’s mental health here. He is a top player but doesn’t need the extra burden and responsibility of captaincy, especially with the gutterpress we have in this country. If there isn’t currently anyone else then they could have appointed someone temporarily.

Add in to the mix they will have be very careful with his white ball workload as we need to keep him fit for every test match!

Brendan McCullum appointed head coach for England's red ball reset. Certainly a bold appointment, doesn't appear to have gone down particularly well with the traditionalists.
