Ben Stokes: England captain delivers drama but did 'crazy cricket' deny him dream end to 'extraordinary' Test career?

England captain Ben Stokes announced he will retire from international cricket following the conclusion of the third Test against New Zealand. Stokes took the unusual step of opening the batting during an extraordinary day of play at Trent Bridge, as England's hopes of securing a series win faded. The occasion was marked by drama but ultimately did not deliver the fairytale ending many had hoped for the departing captain.
