Stokes has been recalled to the national squad for the upcoming Test series against West Indies and is pressing for a place in the starting XI in the first Test on April 13.  In early February, the all-rounder smacked an unbeaten 151 against South Africa A's team, which included 15 sixes, and claimed eight wickets in the one-day series against their South African counterparts.
