• Both men charged with two counts for September 2017 brawl
Ben Stokes and Alex Hales have both been charged with two counts of bringing the game into disrepute and face a two-day cricket disciplinary hearing this December following last year’s involvement in a street brawl in Bristol.
While Stokes was last month found not guilty of affray at Bristol crown court for his part in the incident on 29 September 2017 – and Hales was not charged – the pair are centrally contracted England players and still liable for cricketing sanctions.
