Retirement remains an ongoing concern, though Stokes has reportedly distanced himself from the idea of stepping down. He is set to meet with Neil Fairbrother, his longtime agent and former England batter, to explore options.

Alternatively, he could step away from captaincy duties and take an indefinite hiatus from cricket.
