Tongue acknowledges England missing Stokes
England is experiencing a significant batting absence in the second Test against New Zealand at The Oval, as captain Ben Stokes remains unavailable due to an investigation into a nightclub incident. Stokes, who scored his highest cricket score in nearly a year for Durham, has been sidelined along with pace bowler Gus Atkinson, but both are permitted to play county cricket. England is struggling in the match, which is likely to result in a third consecutive Test defeat, with stand-in captain Joe Root leading a team featuring inexperienced players.
