On Wednesday, the police gave a further statement, which said: "We are investigating allegations of an assault in Derby city centre. The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) said the incident would be investigated by the Cricket Regulator and, as a result, Carse was removed from the England squad for the second Test against Pakistan.

An initial statement from the force, released after video of Carse apparently being detained by officers in the street, had said: “A man in his 30s was arrested on suspicion of being drunk and disorderly in Derby city centre on Saturday night.

On Monday, Derbyshire Police said a man had been briefly detained outside Molly Malone's bar, before being released. Root, who abolished the midnight curfew that contributed to Stokes’s exit following another controversial night out earlier this season, said: “If I’m being brutally honest, I’m really hacked off.
