Stokes not losing sleep over England punishment

BEN Stokes has reignited his long-running row with the International Cricket Council after England were docked two World Test Championship points following last week's win over India.

England claimed a gripping 22-run win to move 2-1 ahead in the five-match Rothesay series, in a Lord's Test where a timewasting row erupted and there were several breaks in play, leading to slow overrates.

The hosts were the only side to be deemed to be in the red once allowances were taken into consideration and the points deduction led to them slipping from second to third in the WTC standings.

England lost a tournament-record 22 points in the last cycle, with Stokes repeatedly exasperated at the playing regulations, which sanctions sides for failing to get through an average of 15 overs per hour.
