flag Stuart Broad dismissed claims of a drinking culture in England's Ashes team, calling them exaggerated and isolated.

flag Former England cricketer Stuart Broad denied reports of a drinking culture within the team during their Ashes tour of Australia, calling claims exaggerated and pointing to senior players like Joe Root and Ben Stokes as responsible figures. flag He said viral clips of Ben Duckett and Jacob Bethell drinking were isolated incidents involving a few individuals who made mistakes, not representative of team behavior. flag Broad emphasized strong team support through such lapses. flag England lost the series 4-1, but Joe Root’s two centuries and Bethell’s emergence were positives. flag Team managing director Rob Key acknowledged media concerns, stating excessive drinking would be unacceptable and that an investigation could follow if warranted, though overall behavior was deemed generally good.
