England all-rounder Ben Stokes has been keeping himself busy with a bit of driveway bowling. The batsman seemingly could not get near any delivery.
Even more respect for the pros after today! Was shaking and sweating just throwing in my kitchen over a video call. No idea how they do it in front of millions! 👏🏼 🎯 https://t.co/eBz5K0Ipai

Stokes’ England team-mate Alex Hales found the going tough in his opening game of the PDC Sports Stars at Home darts challenge – before eventually finding his form to finish as runner-up to boxer Dave Allen.
Well… who knew that @MatchroomBoxing's Dave Allen could play!
He takes top spot ahead of @AlexHales1, with @markjesterselby in third and @BeefGolf in fourth!
A brilliant afternoon of darts 👏
