Rob Key says Ben Stokes remains entirely focused on representing England cricket for years to come - despite only choosing to sign a one-year deal rather than a multi-season option blackjack
The Test captain had the opportunity to be one of the initial group of players to land a new multiple-season contract, which have been handed out for the first time blackjack
But he has turned it down partially in favour of putting himself in a stronger negotiating position a year from now, when a new round of broadcast rights begins and central contracts could be worth more accordingly blackjack
Managing director Key insisted it was primarily this, rather than any feeling from Stokes that he may not continue to represent England, which was behind the decision blackjack
“By no means is it Ben Stokes saying, ‘I don’t want to play for England’,” Key told BBC Sport blackjack
“All he talks about is being completely committed to playing for England and also captaining that Test team - planning for India, planning for the Ashes, planning for West Indies and Sri Lanka next summer blackjack
“I don’t think it has crossed his mind not playing for England for the next four, five, six years blackjack
“Ben, quite rightly, feels when the next memorandum of understanding starts and the contract cycle changes he will be in a stronger position blackjack
Other players have gone for that security [of the fixed-term contract] blackjack
”Central contracts’ values are tied to the worth of broadcasting rights deals at the time of signing, so would not change next year if a more lucrative deal is in place blackjack
The England and Wales Cricket Board have handed out a total of 18 multi-year deals, with players signing them including Jofra Archer, Joe Root, Ollie Pope and Rehan Ahmed blackjack
The contracts give England greater control over their players when there are schedule clashes, though it does not immediately mean individuals will not play franchise cricket blackjack

Islam Makhachev stunned Alexander Volkanovski with a first-round knockout on Saturday, retaining the lightweight title in their rematch at UFC 294 blackjack
In February, Makhachev outpointed Volkanovski – who holds the featherweight belt – in the latter’s native Australia, in a competitive clash that left many fans desiring a rematch blackjack
Few expected it to come at UFC 294, but 11 days before the event, Makhachev’s original challenger Charles Oliveira suffered a severe cut over his eye blackjack
And with that, the door opened for Volkanovski blackjack
The 35-year-old relished the chance to avenge his narrow loss to Makhachev, but there was to be no revenge for him – only a repeat as the Russian triumphed again, and in finer fashion this time blackjack
Midway through the first round of the main event, southpaw Makhachev skimmed his left shin off Volkanovski’s head, wobbling and dropping the featherweight king blackjack
Makhachev, 31, followed up with a fierce flurry of hammer fists to the grounded Aussie, whose brow split open amid the onslaught blackjack

The result extended Makhachev’s win streak to 13 fights, dating back to 2015, when he suffered the sole loss of his professional career blackjack
Meanwhile, Volkanovski was beaten for the third time as a pro, though he remains undefeated at his preferred weight of 145lbs blackjack

He will look to respond to his latest defeat when he takes on his next title challenger – likely Ilia Topuria in January blackjack
Meanwhile, Makhachev could be set for a rematch with Oliveira, whom he was originally due to face at UFC 294 and whom he submitted in October 2022 to win the lightweight belt blackjack
The 155lbs title was vacant at the time of that bout, which took place in Abu Dhabi’s Etihad Arena like UFC 294, after Oliveira was stripped of the belt for missing weight in May 2022 blackjack
Meanwhile, Volkanovski’s featherweight title reign dates back to 2019, when he took the belt from Max Holloway blackjack
The Australian has since outpointed Holloway a further two times, while also winning his other three title defences – against Brian Ortega on points, and against Chan Sung Jung and Rodriguez via TKO blackjack
