That's an article with a hatred of the ECB I'd even I read it! It's fantasy stuff, Stokes has years ahead of him with an ECB contract, yes he has made money from the IPL but players want the contract for England. Plus.....has anyone seriously who has watched him play ever doubted his commitment to England? I havnt, if anything it's his full on personality and never backing down that may have got him in bother off the pitch.
What possible reason could he have to sue the ECB?
If you read vic marks in the guardian today it's a far more balanced report about the whole thing.
Yes it's completely inconsistent what they have done but the have got to the right decision now despite of it. A court case could take all year to sort out, he can't stop playing for a year? What if he is found innocent, missed the whole ashes and New Zealand and the summer!
The ECB have not handled this well no argument there
what else could they do now knowing a court case could take ages
If the case in in the NZ tour he is going to have to come back and face the music.
Media like to stir things up, my guess is Stokes has a decent relationship with the ECB, he's got himself in trouble and will have to take what's coming, he is not he first sportsman to end up in trouble
