The ECB reveal that David Warner initiated an "unprovoked" attack on an England player, believed to be Joe Root.

The England and Wales Cricket Board have insisted that there will be no disciplinary action taken against an England player, thought to be Joe Root, who was involved in an alleged physical altercation with Australia batsman David Warner.

The 26-year-old is currently under investigation by Cricket Australia for an incident which occurred following his side's defeat to England in the ICC Champions Trophy on Saturday.

A statement from the ECB said: "The England and Wales Cricket Board confirms that David Warner initiated an unprovoked physical attack on a member of the England team in a Birmingham bar following England's 48 run victory over Australia.

"Warner has admitted behaving inappropriately and has since apologised to the player involved who has accepted the apology. Following a full investigation the England team management has concluded that the England player was in no way responsible for nor retaliated to the attack."

Warner, who was recently fined for comments made towards journalists on Twitter, has been dropped from today's Champions Trophy clash against New Zealand.
