New delhi date. 20 July 2022 Wednesday

England's great batsman Ben Stokes retired from ODI cricket at the young age of 31, which has now come to a shocking revelation. Former England captain Nasir Hussain believes that physical exhaustion was the main reason behind Test captain Ben Stokes' retirement from ODI cricket.

Because all-format cricket is being played too much. Stokes, 31, announced this Monday that he will retire from ODI cricket after Tuesday's match against South Africa at his home ground in Chester-le-Street, Durham.

Why did Stokes retire from ODIs at the age of 31?

Ben Stokes made his ODI debut against Ireland in 2011 and scored 2924 runs at an average of 38.98 in 105 ODIs, including three centuries and 21 fifties. Has taken 74 wickets at an average of 42.39. He captained the team during the 3-0 series win against Pakistan last summer.

This shocking reason came up

The all-rounder managed just five runs and did not take a wicket in England's 62-run defeat against South Africa in his farewell ODI on Tuesday. Hussain said that Stokes' decision to retire from 50 overs was mainly due to physical fatigue.

Workload management has become a major issue for cricketers around the world and even though Stokes has led the Test team to four consecutive wins, he looks troubled.
