England Test captain Ben Stokes has successfully undergone surgery on his right eye following an injury sustained from a cricket ball earlier this month.

The 34-year-old all-rounder took to Instagram to update fans, sharing an image of his bruised and swollen right eye and cheek. Despite the appearance, Stokes assured that the surgery was a success.

The injury occurred while Stokes was coaching academy players at Durham's indoor cricket centre. This incident follows a disappointing Ashes tour where England lost 1-4 in Australia under Stokes' leadership.
