The alleged spiking is understood to have taken place at a cricket-themed pub in Chelsea, The Boundary, which is co-owned by England cricket’s head coach, Brendon McCullum and white-ball batter Jos Buttler, among other members of the England set-up.
The 50-over World Cup winning captain Eoin Morgan, the former one-day international batter Sam Billings, the former South Africa captain Graeme Smith and the Ireland cricketer Paul Stirling are also shareholders, as is the England and British Lions rugby union hooker Jamie George.
None of the sports star owners were present at the time of the alleged incident, which was said to have taken place on the first day of England’s one-off Test match against Zimbabwe at Trent Bridge on 22 May.
Due to the pub’s ownership, the England and Wales Cricket Board has been aware of the allegations for some time. When contacted by the Guardian it declined to comment.

Other news outlets have described him as "Renowned" "high profile" "well known" and "A top English cricket figure". So not gonna be someone who played the odd ODI.

Although you may well be right in this case, I find your faith in news outlets as being only interested in reporting the news (and so avoid resorting to misleading headlines to oversell a story and therefore boost interest) quite charming.

Always the way though, I remember there being a big story about a 'top Prmeier League star' having an affair that turned out to be Gary Flitcroft, and have the time the 'renowned international footballer' has two caps for Nigeria or whatever.
Ireland in the second half of September. The perfect time of year to play cricket...
One can only back "no completed game" today at 1.01 (or 1/100 in old money). Feel sorry for those sitting there in a forlorn hope that there will be play,
Ireland in the second half of September. The perfect time of year to play cricket...
If they could move The Hundred to January, I’d be happy.
What is the problem people have with The Hundred ? - really dont get it tbh.
It's a shit competition that has ruined the domestic 50 over competition. It means country championship games get moved to dates that don't give spin bowlers a chance. Serves absolutely no purpose apart from making ££££££ for the people who came up with the idea.
Here's a thought, why don't we just have first class cricket 50 over cricket 20 / 20 cricket
The 100 is an abomination and can fuck right off if you are a proper cricket fan.
I'm a 'pwopa' cricket fan, and i like/enjoy it. Its far from a 'shit' competition' - i find that comment a bit childish tbh. 50 over cricket is dying globally anyway, not just because of the 100. Plus, the 100 has paid off the debt of all the counties . So, cant be that bad.

Because it replaces and takes away players in the middle of summer when we should be playing international cricket of all formats instead of days like today in mid September when it’s pissing down …again.

Exactly. And you can see how other countries view the Hundred by the lack of take up of the format

Granted that our Test match players tend not to play in the 100 (although off the top of my head, Duckett,Smith,Pope,Tongue,Archer,Brook,Root as an example all did this year) - but agree we should be playing Tests whilst its on - however, it seems that with the new Indian ownership that they are enforcing all the Test match players are available as part of the new 'contract' which i dont like. However, to embellish it as a 'shit competition' is a bit excessive.
When the domestic 20 over comp was inaugurated, it was regarded as 'hit and giggles' but soon became the top comp domestically - you may well find the 100 to do the same - not just here but also globally. Certainly in terms of attendances its already there.

Ridiculous and sublime - 2 words I've used before
Brilliant 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Just a shame we've not got all the England players playing. Would have helped Lancs
Hampshires Scott Currie called up to replace Saqib Mahmood who needs minor knee surgery

50 over cricket
20 / 20 cricket

the 100 is that bad, if not worse
However, to embellish it as a 'shit competition' is a bit excessive.
There are plenty of other articles stating that 50 over cricket is on the wane.
