TAURANGA NEW ZEALAND- FEBRUARY 28 New Zealand fielder Colin de Grandhomme dives to catch out England batsman Joe Root during the 2nd ODI between New Zealand and England at Bay Oval
Immediately following the altercation with two men outside a Bristol nightclub last September which eventually ruled Stokes out of the Ashes series, the European Central Bank said that he would remain the team's vice-captain.
Jimmy Anderson deputised during the Ashes and England, who controversially have allowed Stokes to play here while he is awaiting a trial that is likely to take place in early summer, have a delicate call to make.
Stokes was not stripped of the title in the wake of the incident in Bristol last September that led to him being charged with affray to which he pleaded not-guilty last month.
The England batting line-up in this series has accumulated 37 ODI centuries, barely more than Virat Kohli has scored off his own bat; the New Zealand line-up in the first one-dayer had accumulated 42.
'It's a decision we've not made yet, ' insisted Root. "I think when we get together as a group, me and Trevor will discuss a few things, but that's not been discussed".
'There's no point looking back on it like that, ' insisted Root.
England all-rounder Ben Stokes felt very emotional yet satisfied after his brilliance helped secure a one-day worldwide series-levelling victory against New Zealand on Wednesday in his second game back since being charged with affray.

How a teacher is educating students about computers - without computers
After the images were shared thousands of times online, Microsoft promised to send him new computer equipment. On Tuesday, Microsoft Africa replied, promising Akoto a computer and access to educational material.
Given his impact, it is tempting to wonder how the 4-0 Ashes series defeat may have gone had Stokes been in the team. "It is what it is".
"We've been playing good cricket for a while but last match we were outplayed - the way England bowled, they didn't give us much".
"All I can say is what I've seen of him coming back into the environment and he's worked his nuts off", said Root. That standard of training is why you get the performances from him on the field'.
"I've been working hard at home making sure that when the opportunity came again to represent England I wasn't going to let anyone down".
The Test captain has been impressed with how his good friend Stokes has fitted back in.
Ben Stokes may have reassumed his mantle as match-winning all-rounder in his second game back but not all of the roles bestowed on him will be handed back so quickly. The manner of the 26-year-old's performance in the second ODI, helping restrict New Zealand to 223 and then taking England home with an 11th ODI half-century, spoke volumes for his preparation in the United Kingdom before coming out to New Zealand. He expected himself to hit the ground running and he has certainly done that. "We're going to have to play better". He loves playing for England and you can see that in the way he plays.
