Stokes, who has been suffering from long-term knee issues, came out of ODI retirement to rejoin the side for their defence of the 2019 title but may be forced to miss the first game of the tournament with a hip complaint. Stokes has not played since smashing 182 against the Black Caps on September 13 and was the only squad member to play no part in the warm-up victory over Bangladesh.
"You don't want to take big risks on someone at the start of the tournament, nearer the end you may need to take more of a risk."
