Stokes' injury: England loses 423 round test against New Zealand!
New Zealand celebrates an overwhelming 423-round victory in the last test, while England's captain Ben Stokes is swimming.
A drama on the cricket field! New Zealand defeated England with a shocking 423-round victory in the third and last test game. While the Black caps cheer, England's captain Ben Stokes sits injured on the edge and can only watch. A nightmare for the English who were so strong after the first two tests!
The 33-year-old Stokes, who missed four tests after an injury in August, was forced to end the game on Monday after a painful Hamstring crack. "Every time you go to the field as an athlete, you expose yourself to the risk of injury," said Stokes after the defeat in Hamilton. "It is simply the law of the series that I finally feel fit again and then something like this happens."
stokes' injury and the consequences
Stokes had thrown 24 overs in New Zealand's first inning rings and was just two balls in his 13th over the second inner sings when the accident happened. A hard effort that turned out to be fatal! "I worked hard to play in this game, and then something unfortunate happens," he added, visibly emotionally about the loss.
The English team, which had triumphed in the first two tests, collapsed at the crucial moment and was thrown out of the game after a catastrophic 234 after lunch in the fourth day. The last three winds fell in just 12 balls - a shocking end for the once dominant English!
"It is disappointing to end, but the first two tests were crucial for us," said Stokes. "We wanted to win every game, but that's the sport."
New Zealand's triumph and farewell to Southe
New Zealand, on the other hand, celebrated a glorious victory that gave Tim Southe a worthy farewell in his last friendly on home. The captain Tom Latham was overjoyed: "It is gratifying to end. We knew that we did not do our best in the first two games, but we have adapted here."
with an impressive game by Mitchell Santner, who scored seven winds and shone with 76 and 49 runs, it was a real team victory. The Black Caps fought back and celebrated their biggest winning streak in history against England!
The English team will now have to wait until May to play in the longest format against Zimbabwe while preparing for a five -part home series against India in July and August. Stokes will have an MRI examination of his injury on Wednesday and hopes to be fit in time.
"I can't go into detail until we know how bad it is. I hope that I can play against India," said Stokes optimistic.
An exciting ending for a test series that was filled with ups and downs, and a clear proof that everything is possible in sport!
