About this deal

On 2 January 2015, Stokes joined the Melbourne Renegades of Australia's Big Bash League for the remainder of the season as a replacement for Jesse Ryder, who was ruled out due to an injury. [18]

Stokes played his second Ashes series against Australia in 2015. He was ineffective with both bat and ball in the Test series; however, he showed his class with the bat in the One-day Internationals. After his father was named the head coach of Workington Town rugby league club at the age of 12, Stokes relocated to England. We expected this - there were very few candidates around the English game to take on this massive role.Hundred franchises confirm retained lists ahead of 2023 campaign".

At The Oval in 2009, Stokes made his List A debut for Durham, and with just his third professional delivery, he was able to dismiss the seasoned batsman Mark Ramprakash. The point is that each of these incidents has its own alternative history, too. Every one could have been the beginning of something new. They were the turning points he passed along the way to that court date in August 2018. “That was a year ago, a long time ago,” Stokes said it when came up in his press conference at Headingley on Sunday. And that was all he wanted to say about it.

A lot of people will be concerned about the possible impact on Stokes' game - he's such a star, he's the man capable of turning any game around.
