Ben Stokes Returns For Durham After England Retirement, Set For First One-day Appearance In 12 Years
South Northumberland Cricket Club: Former England captain Ben Stokes is set to make his competitive return to cricket when he turns out for Durham against Derbyshire in the opening round of the One-Day Cup, marking his first appearance since retiring from international cricket last month.
The 35-year-old all-rounder, who surprised everyone with his retirement from international cricket during England's third Test against New Zealand, will return to domestic one-day cricket on the same day the new version of The Hundred starts.
Stokes missed the second Test against New Zealand while an investigation took place into an incident at a London nightclub. During that time away from the England team, he played for Durham in the County Championship against Northamptonshire. He later admitted that this experience reignited his love for the game.
