The tourists are under pressure to deliver positive results following several wobbles this year, including seven Test wins and seven Test defeats.

The team started the year brightly with a shock victory over India in the subcontinent, but lost their remaining four clashes.

England defeated Sri Lanka and West Indies in two series on home soil, before suffering a 2-1 defeat away in Pakistan.

Stokes will be determined for his squad, which includes debutant all-rounder Jacob Bethell, to dig deep following a busy schedule and aim to record a series victory away from home for the first time since a 3-0 whitewash in Pakistan almost two years ago.
