England Test captain Ben Stokes and coach Brendon McCullum make new players feel “on top of the world”, says all-rounder Will Jacks after receiving a surprise recall for this winter’s Ashes in Australia.Off-spinner Jacks has played only two Tests, in 2022, but returns as cover for Shoaib Bashir ahead of Rehan Ahmed, Liam Dawson and Jack Leach.”The leadership group make you feel like you can take anyone on,” Jacks told BBC Radio 5 Live.”For someone who comes into the team making your debut, that builds you up quickly and makes you feel like you belong there straight away.”He (Stokes) leads with his own actions, which makes him really easy to follow. He would never ask you do something he’s not willing to do.”
