Online and social media vanity games have become a fad now and not only common men but celebrities too fall prey to it. A Whatsapp sex game has caused scandal in England as Worcester allrounder Alex Hepburn is facing trial for raping an unnamed girl as a player. It is said that the Whatsapp sexual conquest game had many cricket players as participants and batsman Joe Clarke after winning a round had consensual sex with the said girl one night in April 2017.

Alex Hepburn the same night had sneaked into the bed and had sexually assaulted the girl who initially thought it was Clarke and only later realized it was someone else. Hepburn was arrested after the girl lodged a complaint and the case came up for hearing and he pleaded not guilty with the jury unable to arrive at a verdict resulting in a new trail.

Joe Clarke and Tom Kohler Cardmore have been dropped from the England Lions squad that is touring India from this week and the future of all the three players are under a dark cloud.
