England captain Ben Stokes has rejected suggestions he could reverse his international retirement for next year's Ashes, saying he is "done".
Stokes, 35, announced his shock retirement on Sunday and his storied international career ended on Monday when his side's defeat by New Zealand in the third Test was confirmed.
Asked if there is any chance he could return to play Australia next summer, he told BBC Test Match Special: "I am incredibly content with everything right now.
"It is a decision I don't take lightly. It has taken a lot of time.
"I am done. I am very happy."
Asked again if he was sure, he replied: "Sure."
