Surely if Ben Stokes is found guilty of a crime, he won't be allowed into Australia for the Ashes anyway. A criminal record is no longer compulsory for entry to that country!
Firebrands like Ben win matches and it will be sad if he is not in the team.
If he is not allowed into Australia it is his own fault. He has shown himself to be a real thug and, actually, I am not thrilled at the thought of thugs representing this country. Nasty...
