Ben Stokes begins life as the new England Test captain as he leads the national side into a series against New Zealand across the UK.<\/p>\n
All-rounder Stokes has been a ray of light in a dark period for English cricket. He took a four-month break from the sport last year as he battled with his mental health.<\/p>\n
The 30-year-old was thrown into the deep end upon his return to action as England were demolished 4-0 in the 2021\/22 Ashes series in Australia. Stokes will hope he can shake off the rust and step back up to his finest form this summer after showing glimpses of greatness Down Under.<\/p>\n
Former captain Joe Root will hope for a big display this week as he begins life after the captaincy, while veteran bowling superstars James Anderson and Stuart Broad return to the side after being controversially axed for the tour of the West Indies at the start of the year.<\/p>\n
New Zealand captain Kane Williamson has overseen a bright spell in charge of his country with 21 Test victories from his 35 matches so far, with only eight defeats. New Zealand have lost just three of their last 18 Test matches and arrive on British soil hoping to spoil countryman Brendon McCullum\u2019s debut Test series as the new England coach.<\/p>\n
