England's cricketers have apologized after team members were seen urinating on the pitch at The Oval as they celebrated the Ashes series victory over Australia on Sunday.
In a statement issued Wednesday, the team responded to criticism by accepting "we got carried away (in) the euphoria of winning such a prestigious series and accept that some of our behavior was inappropriate."
The fifth and final Ashes test at The Oval in south London was drawn, giving England a 3-0 series win. Australian journalists reported seeing England players drinking beer and urinating on the field during a late-night celebration.
The England players said if their behavior offended anyone, "we apologize for that and want to reassure people that it was a simple error of judgment more than anything else."
