England’s Test cricket team captain Ben Stokes has expressed gratitude for being alive after suffering a severe facial injury, which he believes could have been fatal if not for luck. Stokes, 34, sustained this injury in February last year during a net session at a training academy in Durham, where a stray ball struck him on the face, breaking his cheekbone. The incident required immediate surgery.
In an Instagram post, Stokes humorously captioned the incident, “You should check the ball’s trajectory.” England’s all-rounder Ben Stokes is now preparing for the upcoming two first-class County Championship matches in May. Stokes has garnered 3.37 billion impressions on social media platforms in the first 22 matches.
