Ashes 2013: England players did 'answer call of nature' on Oval pitch, says Graeme Swann, after victory celebrations Quoted in the Sun, England spinner Swann said: "We did go out to the middle of the pitch, all the lads, drinking beers, singing a few songs and enjoying each other's company. It was midnight, a private celebration in the middle of the pitch and the ground was dark. Players including Kevin Pietersen, Stuart Broad and James Anderson reportedly queued up to relieve themselves on the square while team-mates cheered. The England and Wales Cricket Board was unavailable for comment on Monday. But Surrey chief executive Richard Gould said: "We've spoken to the ECB and they say they will be looking into the matter. We would be very disappointed if it turns out they did urinate on the pitch.
