The England Cricket Board: Skipper Ben Stokes has come out in defense of his teammates after it was revealed that England’s mid-Ashes break in Noosa between the second and third Ashes Tests was allegedly a stag do, causing excessive drinking by some players.

The England Cricket Board is currently investigating claims of the English team’s drinking culture after a video of Ben Duckett went viral, appearing to show intoxication.

Stokes has hit back at the viral social media post and ‘stag do’ rumours, saying his main concern is the wellbeing of his teammates.
