Players sorry for urinating at Oval

England’s cricketers apologized yesterday after some team members were seen urinating on the field at The Oval as they celebrated the Ashes series victory over Australia.

The fifth and final Ashes test at The Oval in London was drawn on Sunday, giving England a 3-0 series win and sparking late-night celebrations. As England players drank beer, Australian journalists in the ground reported seeing some of them urinating on the field. “We got carried away amongst the euphoria of winning such a prestigious series...,” a team statement said. “If that has caused any offense to anyone we apologize.”
