Stokes backs Crawley to improve dismal NZ record

England all-rounder Ben Stokes has expressed confidence in his teammate Zak Crawley’s ability to turn around his dismal record against New Zealand in the upcoming test series.

Crawley has struggled against the Kiwi pace attack in the past, managing only a handful of runs in previous encounters.

However, Stokes believes that Crawley has the talent and determination to bounce back and make a significant contribution to the team’s success.

“Zak is a fantastic player and has shown his potential in the past. I have no doubt that he will put in the hard work and improve his performance against New Zealand,” Stokes said in a recent press conference.

Stokes himself has had a successful record against New Zealand, and his support and guidance will be crucial for Crawley to overcome his struggles.

The upcoming test series against New Zealand will provide Crawley with a great opportunity to showcase his skills and silence his critics.

With Stokes backing him, Crawley will have the confidence and motivation to rise to the challenge and prove his worth on the international stage.

England will be hoping that Crawley can deliver when it matters most, as they look to secure a series victory against a tough New Zealand side.

Only time will tell if Crawley can live up to Stokes’ expectations and make a significant impact in the upcoming test series.

But one thing is certain – with Stokes in his corner, Crawley will have the support and belief he needs to succeed.
