Stokes calls for support for players in 'tough' time

The Mega Munch takeaway in Nottingham has a special place in English cricketing history.

It was there that some worse-for-wear England players ended their celebrations of a win over New Zealand with a late-night meal.

Trent Bridge had been the birth of Bazball, a breathtaking run chase led by the swash and buckle of Jonny Bairstow on a sun-soaked Tuesday evening in June 2022.

In the aftermath of such an astonishing win, the England players and staff started their night on the tiles with beers on the dressing-room balcony. The drinking carried on to the early hours and the trip to Mega Munch that was filmed and posted online by a member of the public.
