Hales was given a six-match white-ball ban with two already served and four suspended. Stokes was fined a total of £30,000, while Hales was fined £17,500, £10,000 of which is suspended.
Stokes apologised for the incident — in September 2017 — and said he had learned lessons from it. "I regret the incident ever happened and I apologise to England supporters and to the public for bringing the game into disrepute," he said in a statement posted on Twitter.
"Cricket and family are my life. This incident has been a huge burden for the last 15 months. I am relieved to get back to playing the game that I love without this hanging over me. "Although the disciplinary process is now over, I have learned lessons that will stay with me for much longer."
