Just watched it 5 times :
Ben and his mates are being swung at by a guy with a bottle in his hand, Ben takes this guy on who falls to the floor, not many punches landed, bottle swinging guy's mate tries to get Ben off, Ben focuses on this 2nd guy, Ist guy trying to intervene, Ben connects with 2nd guys chin, he goes down, 1st guy still arguing with Ben, so Ben throws a connecting punch at him, Ben having not forgotten that this guy was trying to bottle his mate....video ends abruptly. Ben has done nothing wrong. Self-defence ! |

Just another privileged sportsman behaving badly. Regardless of the outcome, he is not acting like a role model for the youngsters who see him as a Test cricketer with a highly paid ECB contract( £700,000 retainer + £12,000 per Test Match + £5,000 per ODI + £2,500 per T20) Had it before with Flintoff, Peterson etc. about time the ECB made a stand and removed his lucrative contract.

can't say i noticed the bottle but only glanced at the vid once.

By:
Small bottle ....33 cl ....you have to watch a few times.
If you're out with your mates and someone attacks one of you with a bottle, it is perfectly reasonable to make sure the assailant cannot carry on any further attacks. |
|
By:
Aye right enough, i hadn't watched the start and the guy was definitely swinging a bottle at him.
don't blame him for losing the rag a bit |

Caught on camera. Looks like he didn't consider the abilities of the nightwatchman.

He's a goner and so are the Ashes, this bout of violent hooliganism will prevent him getting a visa to enter Australia.

England Cricket Board new Policy " stand by and let People attack you with Bottles "
|
|
By:
I think we need to know a little more before we start making judgements.
|
|
By:
My judgement still stands. Stokes in 2 (by knockout) v Rio. Rio cries, Stokes move to LA.
|

By:
Whats the big puddle of white stuff that just splats onto the ground when the guy is on the ground? Watch the video. I thought it meant it was a milk bottle but the bottle is over to the right at that point.
Did one of them get over excited Should this be asked in another thread that starts with Bu- and ends with -ake? |
|
By:
Amazing how people who weren't there know exactly what happened!

Welcome to Chit Chat Percy, where uninformed opinions are thrown around like an all round cricketers punches

By:
Well it is Quite obvious the Guy is trying to attack someone with a Bottle ,when this happens you have 2 options Run or Attack ,Ben has chose the latter when he 1st takes the guy to the ground he disarms him of the bottle which you hear rolling on the Floor, not sure what Judgements need to be made ??
The scumbag with the Bottle needs to charged not Mr Stokes . People using the Likes of Bottles and glasses Deserve all they get . |

By:
Let's all hope that Hawkeye can get to the bottom of this tawdry incident and give a final and decisive adjudication.

By:

By:
he,ll never play for England again,nap,remember hoddle getting sacked
|
|
By:
So he comes out of the Club and gets hit with a Bottle ,Does he play again ??
|
|
By:
I have to say he is a young man. These things happen to some people. Why do we hold these young men up? The world is so beige at times. I just want to see him play cricket. If he has done something criminal let the law deal with it!
Speaking of criminal...will any of the England Selectors be arrested...Fat NO! Who should be in the dock? |

By:
Thank goodness someone at the ECB has grown a pair and suspended these two.
