'Hero' Ben Stokes first name on team sheet
England Director of Cricket Ashley Giles has told 5 live Sportsweek that 'hero' Ben Stokes is now the first name on the England team sheet. He also revealed that Stokes 'badgered' ECB boss Tom Harrison to be reinstated as vice captain after he lost the role following a late night incident in Bristol. Giles added that England were now 'full of confidence' for the remaining Ashes Tests following Stokes' miraculous performance at Headingley.
