Australia’s premier batter Steve Smith has revealed that England refused to have drinks with the visitors on multiple occasions after the final Ashes Test ended, saying that his teammates got fed up and left The Oval as the hosts were busy in their celebrations.
Reports had suggested that after England won by 49 runs to end the series 2-2, the Australians were shut out of England’s changerooms for a customary post-game drink session, while skipper Ben Stokes insisted via Twitter that the two teams met up in a nightclub later. “We did knock on the door a couple of times. We were waiting around a while and Stokesy came out at one point and said, ‘two minutes’ and about an hour passed. We thought, ‘we can’t keep sitting here. Are we going to have a beer or not’? The guys got a bit fed up and decided it was time to go,” said Smith on SEN Radio.
