The record-breaking Test seamer has endured a frustrating summer and the chances are increasing that he may be struggling to reach the magical figure of 600 Test wickets.

This comes after England suffered a serious blow on Sunday after their dramatic victory over Pakistan at Emirates Old Trafford when their ‘Mr Incredible’ Ben Stokes was ruled out of the rest of the Test summer for family reasons.
Stokes will this week fly to New Zealand to be with his parents Ged and Deborah in Christchurch and will miss at least the last two Tests at the Ageas Bowl.
It remains unclear whether he will be able to return ahead of white-ball games against Pakistan and Australia.
Ged Stokes was taken ill in Johannesburg over Christmas where he had travelled to watch his son play in the first Test against South Africa in Centurion on Boxing Day but after treatment in hospital he was able to return to his native New Zealand where he has been recovering.
