I think it's now a question of where.
Open?
Open and keep? Unlikely
6? Maybe
7 and keep? Maybe
He could be quite handy as the keeper, giving us someone to bat with no.5, 6, Cummins & Starc.

I haven't seen enough of his keeping, but if he's competent he would be a bonus at 7 and keeping

Lucky England dont have Stokes and their batting is flimsy though with Ali likely to bat 7 or 8 they do bat deep.

Stokes will 'appear'. You watch.

After a 1st test belting.

Bancroft 161*

Good to see the younger Marsh brother getting in the runs too. The lad can play. Still only 26.

Agree...I expect England to make a few changes as their players break physically and mentally.....
Stokes is a good cricketer but I expect the Aus crowd to move their attentions from Broad to Stokes if he appears....

Sorry FB, he's a one trick pony, as a batsman
If he doesn't develop his game, he will struggle.
Loves to plant the front foot and hit straight, but struggles if it moves

Steve Smith struggles with a moving ball too and I wouldn't mind his average!
