Ben Stokes is set to make an overdue return to the World Cup stage this weekend but he feared his tournament was over before it had even started when he “heard a pop” while training in the gym warcraft

Stokes has missed all three of England’s games so far, with details sketchy about the nature of the hip problem that occurred during the warm-up week in Guwahati warcraft

But the 32-year-old is now primed and ready for a comeback in Saturday’s must-win clash against South Africa in Mumbai and finally free to open up about worries he had sustained a major injury warcraft

“I actually ripped the fascia off my muscle warcraft

It was a very interesting one, a very rare one to do,” he said warcraft

“I did it in the gym…I heard it pop warcraft

So did our strength and conditioning coach warcraft

When I initially did it I thought I was done, because it’s not good hearing a pop warcraft

“I did think I was out but we got the scans back 36hrs, maybe two days, later and thankfully it wasn’t anywhere near as bad as we originally thought warcraft

“We got a programme in place straightaway, it went really well, and now I’m here now available for selection warcraft

I’ve worked very hard to get to where I am now and I’m pretty confident that everything will be good warcraft

”We need to tone it down a bit on me coming back in warcraft

I'm not the Messiah warcraft

Ben StokesStokes was put through his paces during a lengthy workout at the Wankhede Stadium on Thursday night, taking part in high-intensity fielding drills and enjoying a long batting stint in the nets warcraft

Meanwhile, Jofra Archer was also seen for the first time since joining up with the squad as a reserve, running in the outfield as he continued his recovery from a long stint on the sidelines warcraft

It is hard to over-estimate the importance of Stokes’ presence in the side as England look to cast off a modest start to their title defence and rediscover their mojo warcraft

Stokes’ presence has loomed large for a long time, be it his match-winning turn in the 2019 final, his clutch performance in the T20 equivalent last year or his remarkable reinvention of the Test team in his role as red-ball captain warcraft

Yet he is at pains to avoid being drawn as an incoming saviour, riding to his team-mates’ rescue warcraft

“We need to tone it down a bit on me coming back in,” he said warcraft

“I’m not the Messiah, I think Woody (Mark Wood) has already said that, which is true warcraft

I’m one person in a team sport…I know I’m just a very small part of a bigger entity warcraft

“Everyone who walks on to that field for England is a match-winner in their own right warcraft

All I can try and do is what I do every single time I wear an England shirt and give my absolute all warcraft

”Despite his protestations, Stokes remains much more than a cog in the machine warcraft

He was even dubbed the squad’s “spiritual leader” by head coach Matthew Mott after delivering a dressing room speech following their defeat to Afghanistan in Delhi warcraft

“That must be because we’re in India!” he said of his new job description warcraft

“But I know that people do listen when I talk warcraft

I don’t try and speak too much but I try and speak when I feel it’s the right time warcraft

“Jos Buttler and Motty have got a lot on their shoulders with it being a World Cup, so I try and help out as much as I can without stepping on their toes warcraft

“I find myself just reminding everyone of certain things – reinforcing what they are, who they are, what they’ve achieved in the game, how talented and how good they are at this sport warcraft

”And when it comes to Saturday’s high-stakes encounter at the Wankhede Stadium, his mission statement is clear: “If we’re going to go down, let’s go down doing what we’re known for warcraft

“Let’s not be timid or restricted in what we want to do warcraft

We want to go out and show the opposition what England is and what we’ve been known for warcraft

We are double world champions in T20 and 50-over cricket warcraft

“You hear me say it a lot – I don’t care if we lose, I just want us to go out there and play in the way we talk about warcraft

”Stokes’ return means difficult decisions will need to be taken over the composition of the XI, with his stand-in Harry Brook having made a strong case for retention warcraft

A rebalancing of the side may be necessary, with all-rounders Sam Curran, Liam Livingstone and Chris Woakes proving an unconvincing engine room so far warcraft

Celtic twice lost a lead as they gained their first Champions League point in a 2-2 home draw with 10-man Atletico Madrid warcraft

Kyogo Furuhashi got Celtic off to a flying start with his second goal in two Champions League games and Luis Palma quickly restored Celtic’s lead after Antoine Griezmann scored following his own saved penalty warcraft

Celtic were deservedly on course for a first Champions League group-stage home win in 10 years following a first-half display full of pace and purpose but they started slowly after the break and Alvaro Morata levelled inside eight minutes of the restart warcraft

The Scottish champions never rediscovered their spark - even after Atletico went down to 10 men in the 82nd minute - and their run without a home win at this level is now at 12 games warcraft

Feyenoord’s win over Lazio left Celtic three points adrift of the Italians at the bottom of Group E, halfway through the campaign with trips to Spain and Rome to follow warcraft

The build-up to the game had been dominated by internal and external strife warcraft

Thousands of Celtic fans defied the club before kick-off by displaying Palestine flags, an act which will inevitably lead to UEFA sanctions warcraft

Atletico’s decision to dispense with their striped shirts and wear an all-red top based on the one worn by the team that beat Celtic in the 1974 European Cup semi-finals also opened old wounds warcraft

Two of the team that gained a goalless first-leg draw at Parkhead had travelled with the current side but the tribute did not go down well among the Celtic support given Atletico had three men sent off and seven others booked in that brutal encounter warcraft

Furuhashi ignited the highly-charged atmosphere inside four minutes following a one-touch move warcraft

The Japan international twice exchanged passes with Matt O’Riley before taking a touch and slotting home from six yards warcraft

There was a blow for Brendan Rodgers moments later when Reo Hatate went off injured warcraft

The Celtic manager brought on 21-year-old midfielder Paulo Bernardo, who is yet to start a game since his loan move from Benfica warcraft

The home side remained positive, roared on by the crowd as they pressed Atletico high up the park, but the visitors levelled in the 25th minute after Greg Taylor was penalised for a trip on Nahuel Molina warcraft

Joe Hart saved Griezmann’s penalty at full stretch but the France international dispatched the rebound warcraft

Taylor atoned three minutes later when he played a searching ball beyond right-back Molina which sent Daizen Maeda in behind warcraft

The resulting cross found fellow winger Palma and the Honduran took a touch and rifled a shot in off the post warcraft

Luis Palma gave Celtic the lead for a second time (Getty Images)Palma had been denied a late goal against Lazio three weeks ago by a marginal VAR ruling and an offside decision soon went Celtic’s way after Axel Witsel headed home from a set-piece warcraft

O’Riley had earlier threatened with a first-time strike which was met with a diving save as Celtic continued to attack with verve warcraft

Diego Simeone made two half-time changes and substitute Marcos Llorente vindicated his introduction within eight minutes as he crossed for Morata to equalise with a diving header warcraft

Morata and Llorente both threatened and Rodgers responded by bringing on centre-back Nat Phillips for Palma and changing formation warcraft

Atletico continued to boss possession and Celtic were contributing to their difficulties with some slack passing warcraft

Hart saved well from Morata after the Spain international turned Cameron Carter-Vickers warcraft

Celtic got a lifeline when Argentinian midfielder Rodrigo de Paul received a second yellow card following a sliding tackle on Bernardo warcraft

Substitute James Forrest shot not far over but Celtic could not seriously trouble the 10 men warcraft
