The 33-year-old first tore his hamstring while batting for the Northern Superchargers in the Hundred against the Manchester Originals in August last year.
Stokes has been left out of England's Champions Trophy 2025 squad and will not be playing in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. With Test cricket not resuming until May, he has ample time to fully recover before the busy home season, which includes a Test series against India in June.
Ben Stokes Bowled 36.2 Overs in the Hamilton Test Before Hamstring Injury
Stokes had bowled 36.2 overs in the Hamilton Test before his hamstring injury, the most he had bowled since 2022. He bowled 23 overs on the first day, the most he had bowled in a single day. Stokes had returned to bowling after undergoing successful knee surgery in October 2023.
"I have to work so much harder on the physical side of the job to allow me to go out and do my job," he had said ahead of the Hamilton Test, "but I got a good amount of overs in during the last two games and I am more confident about getting through a lot of spells in a day."
