Her revelation will be a further blow to the controversial cricketer who has been plagued by personal problems.
Panesar abandoned his teetotal lifestyle after a bitter split from wife Gursharan Rattan. A court ordered him to stay away from her in 2011 following an alleged bust-up outside a pub.
Last summer he was arrested and fined for urinating on club bouncers in Brighton then sacked by his county, Northamptonshire.
His surprise selection for
the Ashes tour offered him a final chance to resurrect his England career and he vowed to “repay the faith” selectors had shown in him.
But Panesar played poorly. And the eight-wicket defeat in Melbourne saw him dropped for final Test in Sydney which Australia won.
Alison spotted him back on Tinder shortly after he was axed from the team. “He's active every day on there,” she added.
“It's strange that he's on there when he should be ¬concentrating on playing cricket,” she said.
