Surrey County Cricket Club groundsman Lee Fortis has left his position following disciplinary proceedings stemming from an altercation with an England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) employee, according to reports.
The departure revisits memories of a 2025 incident at The Oval involving former India cricketer Gautam Gambhir and a groundsman, though details of the recent altercation remain undisclosed.
Fortis had been a long-serving member of the groundstaff at the London venue. The club has not issued a public statement on the matter.
