Marylebone Cricket Club members who verbally abused Australian players during the second Ashes Test at Lord's have brought "shame" on the institution, according to the chairman. The normally sedate London ground erupted in fury following the controversial dismissal of England's Jonny Bairstow on the last day of the match last week. Spectators were incensed by the incident, in which Australia wicketkeeper Alex Carey threw the ball at the stumps after Bairstow walked out of his crease having ducked under a Cameron Green bouncer.
Australia and England got down to action yet again in the third Ashes Test after a controversial dismissal of Jonny Bairstow, in the second Ashes Test, looked to sour the contest. Bairstow's stumping by Alex Carey off Cameron Green's bowling was widely covered and divided opinions. While many people opined that it was within the laws of the game, many former players thought that the spirit of cricket was not upheld. The repercussions of that incident was felt in the third Test too as the Leeds crowd vociferously trolled and booed almost every other Australian batter's departure.
Australia did the hard yards in the final session to reduce England to 68/3 on Day 1 of the ongoing third Ashes Test in Headingley. This came after Australia, invited to bat, rode on Mitchell Marsh's 118 to post a modest total of 263. England seemed to be in control with Zak Crawley off to a good start, Australia captain Pat Cummins had other ideas as he struck twice in the final session to dismiss Ben Duckett and Harry Brook, who was promoted up the order in the absence of the injured Ollie Pope.
Mitchell Marsh's run-a-ball 118 was the cornerstone of Australia's 263 all out on the first day of the third Ashes Test at Headingley on Thursday after the tourists collapsed either side of his blistering century.
