(UTV|COLOMBO) – Former England Captain Michael Vaughan says all-rounder Ben Stokes “Does not deserve” a warm reception from England fans in the third Test against India on Saturday.
Stokes was involved in a fracas in Bristol last September but was found not guilty of affray on Tuesday.
The 27-year-old is set to return to the side at Trent Bridge having missed the second Test while on trial.
“He has brought the game into disrepute,” Vaughan told BBC Sport.
“Knowing the England cricket fans as I do, they will give him a reception. I don’t think he deserves that,” Vaughan said adding, “He’s certainly not a hero, as some have portrayed him to be.”
