Ben Stokes has scored his 14th test century as England ran up a 311-run lead in the fourth test against India.

After the exhilaration of Ben Stokes’s first Test century in two years, England were pegged back in a frustrating end to the fourth day

England assistant coach Marcus Trescothick has cast uncertainty over Ben Stokes' ability to contribute with the ball on the final day of the fourth Test against India in Manchester. With England’s pace attack failing to pose consistent threats and missing a caught chance off Brydon Carse the absence of Stokes’ incisive bowling was felt more keenly.

Stokes became only the fourth England cricketer to have scored a century and taken a five-wicket haul in the same Test match. Stokes, who had claimed five wickets for 72 runs during India’s first innings in the match.

Despite frontline fast bowler Jofra Archer returning from injury, Stokes bowled more overs than anyone else in the third test at Lord's, before his efforts in Manchester this week ensured he has now bowled more overs than in any other series in his test career.

At 11:58 p.m. on Saturday, the NWS Blacksburg VA issued a heat advisory valid for Sunday between noon and 8 p.m. for Stokes and Yadkin counties.
