In the video, it can be heard that someone is saying “Enough, Stokes”, possibly it was his teammate Alex Hales who was with him on that night.

Talking about the incident, Strauss said, “I don’t think right now is the time to comment on what may or may not happen from a disciplinary point of view. At the moment, what I’m doing is speaking to the players individually to get their accounts of what went on on Sunday night. There is a disciplinary protocol that is in place as part of their conditions of employment. We need to follow that for all players who may be subject to disciplinary proceedings, including Ben.
