Stuart Broad: Current England squad under Ben Stokes, Brendon McCullum 'do not have drinking culture'

Former England bowler Stuart Broad says he believes England "do not have a drinking culture," despite a number of high-profile incidents during the side's 4-1 Ashes defeat to Australia this winter. 

England lost the series in just 11 days of cricket after an error-strewn first three Tests in Perth, Brisbane and Adelaide, with their lean preparation and aggressive style of cricket, plus a mid-series beach break in Noosa where they were pictured drinking, criticised.

During the series, a video posted on social media appeared to show opener Ben Duckett drunk and slurring his words and asked by a small group of people whether he knows how to get back to his hotel.

Harry Brook also apologised for "embarrassing myself and the team" after an altercation with a nightclub bouncer in New Zealand during the autumn.

England managing director Rob Key promised to investigate the drinking habits of the team, following reports their mid-Ashes beach break resembled a "stag do".
