It is a known fact that England’s star cricketer Joe Root had stepped down as the captain for the test side earlier this month.

Now, the ECB have appointed Ben Stokes as the new Test captain.

Stokes, who made his Test debut in December 2013, has played 79 longest format games for his country. He was appointed as the vice-captain in 2017 and also took the responsibility of captaincy when Joe Root was absent for the birth of his second child in 2020.

“I am honoured to be given the chance to lead the England Test team. This is a real privilege, and I’m excited about getting started this summer,” Stokes said.

“I want to thank Root for everything he has done for English Cricket and for always being a great ambassador for the sport all across the world. He has been a massive part of my development as a leader in the dressing room, and he will continue to be a key ally for me in this role,” he added.

Apparently, Stokes will be 81st captain of the England Men’s Test team.
