How can we tell if he is laughing with Harvey or taking the piss?    All he appears to be doing is repeating what Harvey said.  Sure half a dozen people repeated it to me soon after, and I didn't think any of them were having a go at Harvey.  Dare say the Mail repeated it too...

We all say things privately for a laugh or to shock that, if shown to a wider audience, would be pretty much indefensible. I might ban him for being grossly stupid and filming it

Well I don’t give a shit either way, I selfishly want him to play come hell or high water. I’m certainly not innocent either when it comes to saying piss poor stuff for a bit of banter.

I was pretty sure the professional offence takers would be all over it like a rash, time will tell I guess.....

Pretty sure I read somewhere that it will be announced on Monday.

PS - the ECB website is not great, is it?

No the ECB site isn't very good.
I'm a bit of a stats geek for cricket and cricinfo is great for that, but ECB really should sort out their online stuff. Went on their twitetr page this morning and saw a ginger player on front pic and thought 'fk me that's bold of them having Stokes on the front', then realised it was Bairstow from last nights game Smiley

I now gather it will be Wednesday.

Let's agree on "soon".

Really, that sort of info should be easily available on the ECB site. It really is dreadful.

Steven Finn has been added to England's Ashes squad. Ben Stokes won't travel "at this stage". More to follow

This was mentioned quite soon after, but I'm not sure it makes much difference, in the eyes of the law.

A couple of years ago ,the brother of someone I used to work with , was in a fight against a friend outside a pub, and one punch he threw, tragically killed his friend.
The defendant also broke a bone in his hand....which the judge mentioned as evidence that real force was used.
Interestingly, he appealed his 5 year manslaughter sentence, on the basis that a video of him fighting with a friend should not have been included in evidence.
He lost that appeal.

I can't see how Stokes will not be prosecuted, and receive a fine/ small community sentence.

If you're good at cricket, you get a seat. Everyone else has to stand.
