London, July 3 (IANS) England added all-rounder Ben Stokes to an otherwise unchanged squad for the first Investec Test against India, starting at Trent Bridge, **ttingham, on Aug 9. Durham all-rounder Stokes, 23, was the star performer during England's disastrous Ashes in winter, taking 15 wickets and hitting a maiden Test century in the 5-0 whitewash inflicted by Australia.
