ECB Mulls Bringing Back Player Curfew After Ashes Fiasco: Report

By IANS News January 12, 2026 • 10:56 AM View: 267

T20 World Cup: England may bring back a player curfew ahead of their upcoming white-ball tour of Sri Lanka and India after concerns grew over the team’s off-field behaviour during the recently concluded Ashes series in Australia.

The Ashes, which England lost 4–1, was disappointing not just because of the results but also because of what players were seen doing away from cricket.

After the second Test, when England were already 2–0 down, the squad spent time in Noosa where, as per multiple reports, there were six straight days of heavy drinking.
