England do not need massive change - Stokes

Article excerpt

England's cricket captain Ben Stokes deflected calls for wholesale team overhaul following a lopsided 4-1 Ashes defeat in Australia. Rather than sweeping changes, Stokes argued the squad needs only targeted adjustments to bounce back from their worst Ashes result in years. The captain's measured stance suggests England will largely stick with their existing personnel while fine-tuning specific areas. Whether this cautious approach will satisfy frustrated fans and critics demanding more dramatic action remains to be seen.
