England Test captain Ben Stokes shared his ideas on his plans after retirement. He has played as a crucial player for England as he was part of England’s squad in the 2019 ODI World Cup and 2022 T20 World Cup played respectively in England and Australia.
Ben is currently on his road to recovery and has revealed that he wishes to coach the team after he retires.
“I can’t see myself being someone who when the day comes when I do stop playing, I’ll just not be involved with cricket. I do see myself probably wanting to go down the route of being a coach. I think that’s just with my love for the game. When I’m done playing, I’d love to be able to try and affect a few people’s careers,” Stokes said.
Ben also wanted to appear in the Champions Trophy 2025 hosted by Pakistan, though he is not certain about his future in Test cricket.
“It’s hard to turn down those sort of big events, isn’t it? If I didn’t play another white-ball game, I’ll be very content with how many games I’ve played and what I’ve been able to achieve. I don’t know what the plan is going forward, whether they see me being a part of that or not. I’m sure there’ll be some conversation at some point about that. And I’ll be happy either way,” he added.
