England’s ace all-rounder Ben Stokes, who has had a horrific time of late owing to his involvement in the infamous street brawl incident outside a night club at Bristol, put all his recent troubles behind on Saturday (October 14) as he married his long time fiancée Clare Ratcliffe.

There were many contemporary and past cricketers such as Joe Root, Alastair Cook and Paul Collingwood who have attended the function to watch the cricketer tie the knot. However, a gentle reminder of Stokes’ arrest over a nightclub brawl was visible as he had a bandage wrapped around his right hand.

The bandage soon disappeared though as he kissed his new bride outside the village church of St Mary the Virgin in East Brent, near Weston super Mare. Stokes apparently is in a relationship with Clare for last seven years.

The scandal-hit cricketer is still under police investigation for the charges of causing bodily following the entire episode on September 26.

Things turned worse for the maverick all-rounder after the video footage obtained by The Sun went viral. The footage apparently shows Stokes swearing and throwing punches at two men in a nasty face-off in the early hours of September 25 (Monday). In the close to a minute long video, England opening batsman Alex Hales can also be spotted trying to calm stokes down by repeatedly saying "Enough, Stokes".

Subsequent to the ugly brawl at Bristol, Stokes and Hales were snubbed from the fourth ODI against Windies in London as they had to cooperate with the police in the investigation process.

England and Wales Cricket Board later released a statement stating that both the cricketers won't be considered for selection until further notice, thereby putting a massive question mark on Stokes’ participation in the forthcoming Ashes series, slated to start from November 23 at Gabba.
