Stokes lashed out at player who plucked kangaroos’ feathers in third Test; Said, ‘Strength due to such a player…’

England made a strong comeback in the Ashes series 2023 by winning the Headingley Test by 3 wickets. In the first two Tests, England faced heavy defeats. So it was very important for England to win this match. In this match, Mark Wood performed remarkably for England both in the batting and bowling departments. England captain Ben Stokes praised Mark Wood after the team’s win. Also, he was called a special player.

What did Stokes say?
Ben Stokes said after winning the Test match at Headingley, “Very happy with this win. After winning the toss we could do anything batting or bowling. Mitchell Marsh batted brilliantly in the first innings and took us away from the game. The outfield at this ground is good. Mark Wood and Chris Woakes also played brilliantly with comebacks. I didn’t think Woakes was playing Test cricket after a long time.”

Speaking further, Stokes said, “Having a player like Mark Wood in the team gives you strength. Along with consistently bowling at 95 mph, he also contributes significantly to the lower order with the bat. Scoring 24 runs in just 8 balls is not an easy task. You don’t succeed in doing that every time.”

The next match is very important for both the teams
Talking about the next Test match, Stokes said, “The fourth match will be crucial for both the teams. Everyone wants to play well. Having a break of 9 days will also give us a chance to rest. It was fantastic for us to come and play at Headingley. We get good support from the fans here.”

The fourth Test match of the Ashes 2023 series will be played from July 19 at the ground in Manchester. With a win in this match, Australia will try to bag the series, while England will try to draw the series.
