Ben Stokes Returns as England Captain for 2nd Test Against Pakistan

England captain Ben Stokes has made his return to the Test squad after recovering from a hamstring injury that sidelined him since August. Stokes was named in England’s playing XI for the second Test against Pakistan, set to begin on Tuesday in Multan.

Stokes, who missed out on the first Test, is one of two changes to the team that defeated Pakistan by an innings and 47 runs. The other change sees fast bowler Matthew Potts come into the side, replacing Gus Atkinson.

Stokes’ return is expected to provide a significant boost as England looks to build on their dominant performance in the opening match and secure a series win. His leadership and all-round skills are seen as crucial to England’s campaign in Pakistan.
