The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) is reportedly investigating a shocking report which states that wicket-keeper Jonny Bairstow allegedly 'headbutted' Australian batsman Cameron Bancroft during a night out in Perth earlier this month. According to The Independent, the incident occurred between Bairstow and Bancroft outside The Avenue Hotel in Perth, when England were playing a warm-up match against Western Australia Cricket XI at the start of this month. It is claimed that the incident went no further, and that police were not involved in the matter.
