The International Cricket Council (ICC) has asked the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) to explain why Ben Stokes’ retirement announcement was broadcast before the Test match concluded.
The ICC believes the early release may have breached its event broadcasting regulations. Tournament rules generally restrict major announcements until official play has ended.
The ECB is expected to respond to the ICC’s request and clarify the circumstances surrounding the video’s release. The governing body will review the explanation before deciding whether any further action is necessary.
