Will Ben Stokes be raising his bat in acclaim during this summer’s men’s Ashes?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It’s coming home in 2023… at least according to BBC Sport readers.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

At the turn of the new year, we asked you to vote on who will win the men’s Ashes this summer – and 77% of respondents said it would be England.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Unfortunately for England fans, a similar number (72%) can’t see past Meg Lanning’s all-conquering Australia in the women’s Ashes.<\/span><\/p>\n

And 61% believe Lanning’s team will retain their T20 World Cup crown in South Africa next month, with 25% backing England and India taking 10% of the vote.<\/span><\/p>\n

England’s men (62%) topped the poll to find this year’s winner of the 50-over World Cup, which will be held in India in the autumn. India (21%) were the only other team to register in double percentage figures.<\/span><\/p>\n

Your 2022 teams of the year<\/h3>\n

We also asked you to pick your 2022 world men’s Test and white-ball XIs, plus a global women’s side.<\/span><\/p>\n

He may have only had a steady year with bat and ball but Ben Stokes made it into 84% of your 2022 Test teams after helping lead England’s sensational turnaround in the longest format.<\/span><\/p>\n

Australia opener Usman Khawaja was the most popular pick (89%) while Joe Root was unfortunate to miss out. He was the most-picked batter at number four but was pipped by Pakistan captain Babar Azam – the fourth most popular selection overall who was chosen at three and four in the batting order.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Test<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

There are four of England’s men’s T20 World Cup winners in your white-ball XI for 2022. A massive 97% of you selected captain Jos Buttler and 96% chose player of the tournament Sam Curran. <\/span><\/p>\n

Pakistan, the runners-up in Australia, have two entrants – Babar and left-armer Shaheen Afridi – while Mohammad Rizwan and Haris Rauf only just missed out. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"Men's<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Australia won the 50-over World Cup and the Commonwealth Games in 2022 and openers Beth Mooney and Alyssa Healy, captain Meg Lanning, plus leg-spinner Alana King make your white-ball women’s XI.<\/span><\/p>\n

England spinner Sophie Ecclestone (96%) was the most popular pick while Harmanpreet Kaur edged out her India team-mate Smriti Mandhana by just 26 votes.<\/span><\/p>\n
