    He should know better BT, what a role model for young cricketers.

    Found not guilty of affray, so now it’s the Cricket Board to pontificate on him and Hales.

    Another waste of taxpayer's money. Doesn't seem to matter which PC cretin they put in charge, the CPS carries on getting it wrong.

    I said exactly the same at lunchtime today sinkov. I have mentioned on here before that a DS lives next door to us and he said the chance of a conviction was "below minimal". Dead right he was too!

    Former England captain Michael Vaughan says Ben Stokes has "suffered enough punishment" and has backed the all-rounder's return to the England squad.

    Stokes missed England's 2017-18 tour of Australia while his role in a fracas in Bristol last September was being investigated.

    The 27-year old was found not guilty of affray on Tuesday.

    "The case against him should take into account the time he has already served," Vaughan said.

    "There is no question he brought the game into disrepute but cricketers have few opportunities in their lives to play an Ashes series in Australia and missing that tour was a massive blow for Ben.

    "There is no need to keep clobbering him with suspensions,"
