Ben Stokes was forced to leave the field during day three of England's third Test against New Zealand at Seddon Park after a recurrence of a left hamstring injury. He will undergo a scan this evening to understand the full extent of the injury. Britain's commander pulled up after the second wad of the 56th over of New Zealand's subsequent innings - his thirteenth, and third of the day - on Monday evening, promptly feeling the rear of his left thigh in the wake of conveying a bouncer that Rachin Ravindra pulled for four. It was a similar hamstring he tore in August while batting for Northern Superchargers against Manchester Firsts in the men's Hundred, which kept him out for quite some time. Bowling from the City End, Stirs up put his hand all over and continued to stroll toward the group changing area away at the recently renamed Tim Southee End. New Zealand were driving by 409 at that point, as left-arm spinner Jacob Bethell completed the over. An ECB update at tea expressed Stirs up won't get back to the field for New Zealand's second innings while he gets treatment, with a further evaluation to be made on whether he will bat. Britain completed the day 18 for 2, pursuing a mammoth 658, however they have previously gotten the series after triumphs in the initial two Tests. "A similar hamstring he's had previously," affirmed Britain collaborator mentor Marcus Trescothick. "He's been going so indeed, he's been bowling and assuming the part that he does as an all-rounder and commander. "We didn't see it coming, you have no indications of these kind of things… for the most part they simply occur." Stirs up's 36.2 overs in Hamilton were the most he has bowled for in a Test since 40 at Trent Scaffold in 2022 (likewise against New Zealand). On the very beginning, his 23 overs were the most he has overseen in a solitary day, split between spells of eight, eight and seven. It is quite important Britain's most memorable innings capitulation for 143 implied their seamers just had 34.5 overs of rest after 97.1 between them for New Zealand's initial exertion. The hosts went further in their subsequent innings, saving Britain in the field for 101.4 overs, in the end completing on 453. This series has brought Stirs up seven excusals at 36.85 from 66.1 overs - his most as skipper - joined by a batting normal of 52.66 across four innings. In the wake of attempting to successfully satisfy the allrounder job, this series had been a welcome re-visitation of the Stirs up of old. It was exclusively on the past night (Sunday) that associate mentor Paul Collingwood commended Stirs up's return as a supernatural allrounder. Following the present occasions, Trescothick expressed Stirs up could need to tailor his bowling loads proceeding. "I actually consider he's given indications the course of this series that returning to wellness he will have that level. Perhaps it's a case that you deal with his bowling burdens and he doesn't bowl the volume that he's possibly bowled in this game. "Wounds occur, isn't that so? they're continuously going to be essential for the game. he functions admirably with his wellness. to attempt to get into the shape he can be. He bowled 24 in the primary innings, and he was bowling many in this (second) innings [12.2 overs]. We'll simply need to take a gander at how we oversee it." Stirs up looked naturally sad as he strolled off, having just barely beaten the physical and mental work from the underlying hamstring tear which wrecked his re-visitation of full wellness in the mid year. Having shown up into the home summer following effective knee medical procedure in October 2023, he bowled 49 overs across three Tests against West Indies, with five wickets that took him past 200 profession excusals. The tear consequently put him in a difficult spot, administering him out of the three-match series against Sri Lanka toward the finish of the time, and the main Trial of the Pakistan visit. Stirs up returned for the last two matches of that series however Britain lost both, surrendering to a 2-1 loss having won the primary Test. He conceded his drive to recapture full wellness drove him to "truly channel and ruin himself". At the point when the crew assembled at Queenstown toward the beginning of the series, Stirs up apologized for the adverse consequence he had in the group climate. Before this last Test, Stirs up was hopeful he was in a decent spot, with a superior comprehension of his body. "I need to work such a ton harder on the actual side of the task to permit me to go out and take care of my business however I got a lot of overs in during the last two games and I'm more certain about helping through a great deal of spells in a day.
