England cricket team have been dealt with a major blow as captain Ben Stokes has suffered a groin injury mid-way through the AUS vs ENG 5th Ashes Test. The incident occurred shortly after the start of play on Day 4 as the all-rounder was forced to limp off the field just 15 minutes into the 1st session. Stokes, who has featured in all five Tests, is perhaps one of the most overworked England player in this series – especially with the ball.
Ben Stokes injured
It took just ten deliveries from Stokes on Day 4 for him to decide to walk back to the dressing room, confirming England’s worst fears. The England captain was bowling his 28th over when he got injured and was forced to limp off the field. Jacob Bethell completed the rest of the over. An eCB spokesperson confirmed that Stokes had suffered a right adductor injury and that an update will be provided when more information is available.
“Ben Stokes is currently being assessed for a right adductor complaint. We will provide an update when more information is available,’ an ECB spokesperson said, as per ESPNCricinfo.
Stokes has been dealing with too many injuries off late, despite playing just one format of the game. First, he missed a series against Sri Lanka in 2024 due to a hamstring injury. The same injury recurred in December 2024 during the series against New Zealand. As shoulder injury in 2025 saw him miss the 5th Test against India.
The England captain has down quite some heavylifting for the side in the ongoing Ashes series. He is the second most overworked bowler from the side in the series, having bowled 101.1 overs. England have already lost the Ashes in a record 11 days and now are plaing for pride.
