Haven’t seen the Bairstow one but from reading about it, it sounds like Bairstow has been doing the same thing at the end of the over a few times now and Carey has noticed it and gone for the run out, by the sounds it just seems poor from Bairstow

He was stumped. End of

The rest is just emotion.

If the Aussies are getting riled by the old boys in the Lords Long Room then they should be thankful it didn't happen at Edgbaston or Headingley.

It’s funny to watch.

They are rattled a bit

He had done it the previous 3 balls, no advantage was being gained though. But rules are rules i suppose

Totally agree. What Bairstow did was dozy. What Carey did was sharp good cricket. This isn't Gentlemen v Players. This is professional sport and they play to win. 

Where did you find that Kohli quote?

Just like England played to the rules during the Bodyline series of 1932-33, that prompted telegrams from the Australian Government to their British counterparts calling England (MCC) 'Unsportsmanlike'.

Douglas Jardine's leg theory to nullify Bradman was sharp good cricket and it definitely wasn't Gentlemen v Players back then either, but upon their return to England after successfully regaining the Ashes, all within the rules of the time, Jardine was relieved of the captaincy and Harold Larwood, the fastest bowler in the world was never picked for England again!

Any decent team would withdraw the appeal after seeing that Bairstow thought it was over. That’s cricket 

Winning teams don't!

I know he's a big bloke but why can't Broad duck a bouncer? 

I'm feeling the bruises from here on my sofa 

I should add he’s done brilliantly out there so far, I just don’t like seeing him get hit so much, he’ll be too bruised to play the next test in a few days
