England are confident enough that Ben Stokes will feature in the starting XI in their upcoming ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 match against South Africa on October 21. Stokes has been sidelined for England's opening three ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 matches, due to a hip issue while his teammates have suffered crushing defeats to Afghanistan and New Zealand. England only won one game against Bangladesh. Stokes's return could be a boost for England, as he had set his sights on a comeback against South Africa. He was 'close' to playing the match after batting in nets in Delhi prior to the Afghanistan match, but he was left out of the starting XI. ‘Beat Any Side if We Play Our Best Brand of Cricket’ Says Netherlands Captain Scott Edwards After Stunning South Africa in ICC World Cup 2023
