The first article from Hum News reports on the injury of England's Test cricket captain, Ben Stokes, who suffered a facial injury during a net session. The article notes that Stokes was not actively participating in batting or bowling when the incident occurred; instead, he was standing on the sidelines when a ball struck his cheek, resulting in swelling and a visible bruise around his eye. Stokes humorously confirmed the injury on Instagram, stating, 'آپ کو گیند کی حالت دیکھنی چاہیے۔' This incident follows a previous adductor injury he sustained during the fifth Ashes Test in Sydney last month. Stokes is currently in recovery and plans to continue his rehabilitation in Abu Dhabi later this month, where he will also take on an informal coaching role with the England Lions squad under Andrew Flintoff's leadership. He has not played white-ball cricket for England since the 2023 World Cup and is not part of the T20 World Cup squad starting this week. His next international appearance is likely in June against New Zealand, with prior participation in the County Championship for Durham.
