The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has reportedly concluded its investigation into reports of excessive drinking by the England cricket team between the second and third Ashes Tests

Ben Duckett gave a savage reply to an Australian fan after the latter was seen mocking the England opener with a "Do you want a beer?" sledge during Day 2 of the 4th Ashes Test on Saturday.

Australian cricket team batter Travis Head weighed in on the controversy surrounding England's mid-Ashes trip to Noosa, where some cricketers were spotted drinking alcohol.

According to reports in the English media, a number of players got too drunk during their six-day stay in Noosa, a resort town, ahead of the third Test in Adelaide.

Former England captain Michael Vaughan refused to pin the blame on the England players accused of a drinking 'stag do', instead pointing out a wider issue in cricket.

ECB is investigating for verification of a video appearing to show England opener Ben Duckett drunk and struggling to find his way back to the team hotel during the team's break to Noosa.

A video showing England cricket team batter Ben Duckett apparently drunk and unable to find his way back to the team hotel during the squad's break between the second and third Ashes Tests has surfaced on social media.

A central talking point before the series has been how Bazball will adapt to Australian conditions, but Ben Duckett noted that both he and the team are developing a more refined and flexible version of their approach.

No other opening batter has scored 7 hundreds in Test cricket since Yashasvi Jaiswal made his debut.
