Would you pour a pint/a cup of coffee/tea/water over someone head at work?

I’ve done it on a leaving do to someone I’ve worked with, not my finest moment but you learn from mistakes, if these people are treated like kids and can’t make mistakes they won’t learn!

I can't imagine this being a "friendly" event. You pour drinks over your peer, or over someone junior. Jimmy is a veteran and the teams Vice Captain! Seems like dunket was just being a total (No Swearing Please) to his senior?

I really don’t get why this Duckett story is such a problem, it’s not a school trip!

Not a school trip it' could be  judged as bringing  your employers name into disrepute seen people dismissed for it.

But the ECB seem to be doing a perfectly good job of that themselves...

On the field, Jimmy talks a lot and seems like a tough guy but he is probably a mouse in real life. How is it that Ben Ducket could get that thought in his head that he could pour a drink over Jimmy's head? Incredible! Is there no hierarchy in the England XI? Root must be a weak leader, I don't see it happening under Cook's tenure. Benji would've (rightfully) decked Ducket.

If anyone would of 'decked' anyone else they would of been sent home-with the current situation that's for sure.

What would of happened if Anderson had reacted?

Cricket fable(this did happen thou) Darren gough decked Swann because he was being a prat. Swann got sent home

You have some sympathy for modern players because social media and reporting is so much more these days 10 years ago the Bairstow incident would barely of registered as any issue

But as has been pointed out, this is work not a day trip jolly.

England management group, the lot of them should be in Australia for the duration of the trip.

I just hope things don't get any worse  :o

I don't see a problem with the Duckett incident but certainly, this provides Australian media to play up some more stories and get into the player's heads. In an away tour, the visiting team should relax probably in the hotel bar or something with strict privacy enforced .. something which ECB should be able to negotiate with Australian board.

It used to be - 'what goes on tour, stays on tour'.

Now it's - 'what goes on tour, goes on social media'.

Ok. Bayliss clearly has no understanding of media scrutiny, code of conduct, and team discipline. :D Bayliss should call you for guidance.

Some young punk dumps beer on an England legend.. he SHOULD be punished !! Not because of any "moral" reason, but because this much disrespect for seniority should never be allowed.
