LONDON, April 2, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - England white-ball captain Harry Brook and team-mate Jacob Bethell have been warned about their future conduct after a nightclub incident on the pre-Ashes tour of New Zealand last year. The Cricket Regulator -- a body independent of the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) responsible for enforcing regulations -- on Wednesday issued cautions to Brook and Bethell for breaching player conduct rules. Brook and Bethell both played in the match the next day, which England lost by two wickets to complete a 3-0 series defeat. The Regulator "issued a caution notice to Harry Brook and Jacob Bethell in relation to their conduct", said a statement. England players were photographed spending hours in bars during a mid-series beach resort break, with a video of an apparently drunk Ben Duckett circulating on social media.
