Lee Fortis leaves Surrey after disciplinary proceedings
Lee Fortis has left Surrey after disciplinary proceedings, according to a Times of India report published on November 11, 2026.
Fortis had been in the news in 2025 after an argument with India head coach Gautam Gambhir over the Oval pitch.
During the exchange Gambhir told Fortis, "You’re just a groundsman, nothing beyond that." India batting coach Sitanshu Kotak later called Fortis "arrogant."
