A heated confrontation occurred between England's security staff and a Channel Seven cameraman at Brisbane airport, adding to the Ashes tour challenges.
The England cricket team's Ashes tour has hit another snag following a confrontation between their security personnel and a Channel Seven cameraman at Brisbane Airport. The incident took place as the team was checking in for their flight to Adelaide on Saturday, ahead of the third Test match. This latest event adds to the pressure on the team, who are currently trailing 0-2 in the five-match series.
Footage from Channel Seven captured a member of the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) security team repeatedly telling the cameraman to move back during the check-in process. Channel Seven described the interaction as "aggressive."
CODE Sports published images showing the security official stepping away while the cameraman continued to film. Video of the incident is available to watch online.
As of now, the ECB has not released an official statement regarding the altercation. Australian media outlets have reported on the incident, highlighting the difficulties faced by the England team during the tour. The confrontation comes at a critical juncture for Ben Stokes' team, who are under pressure to turn the series around with three Tests remaining.
