Andy Murray thinks there is a «good chance» Wimbledon will be disrupted by Just Stop Oil protesters. Wimbledon organisers have urged players not to «try a Jonny Bairstow» if Just Stop Oil protesters attempt to spray orange paint over Centre Court. Ad Just Stop Oil recently targeted the second Ashes Test which saw England's Bairstow carry a protester off the pitch at Lord's.
The Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) has suspended three members over altercations with the Australian team in Lord's Long Room following Jonny Bairstow's controversial stumping on the final day of the second Ashes Test. The MCC had earlier "unreservedly apologised" to the Australian team for the behaviour of some of its members, who allegedly verbally abused several visiting players as they made way to the dressing room at lunch on Sunday. Television footage showed openers Usman Khawaja and David Warner involved in a heated exchange with spectators in the Long Room, which is an area reserved only for MCC members and their guests.
Opinions are divided over the much-talked-about Jonny Bairstow dismissal from Day 5 of the Lord's Test. While many feel that the England keeper was deservedly given out as he wandered out of his crease recklessly, others feel Australia should've given him a warning and not stump him on the first instance. However, a video has emerged on Twitter suggesting Carey might not have been the first one to attempt such a dismissal in the match but the man in the spotlight, Bairstow himself.
Stokes' side are trailing 2-0 in the five-match series after Australia survived a brilliant innings of 155 from the England skipper to win by 43 runs at Lord's on Sunday.
The 'spirit of cricket' debate has triggered among fans and experts on social media ever since England wicket-keeper batter Jonny Bairstow was dismissed in a controversial manner. An unaware Bairstow wandered outside his crease, only for Australia wicket-keeper Alex Carey to dislodge the bails and get him out run-out. As fans discuss whether Australia were right to dismiss Bairstow in the fashion, fans recall how MS Dhoni withdrew a similar run-out appeal during an India vs England Test in 2011, allowing the already-dismissed Ian Bell to return to the crease.
It has been described as "the most evocative four walls in world cricket" and somewhere to watch the game in an atmosphere of almost monastic calm, far from the madding crowd. Yet the usually tranquil Long Room at Lord's became a seething cauldron of hate on Sunday as Marylebone Cricket Club members abused Australia players returning from the field during a lunch break on the last day of the second Ashes Test following the controversial dismissal of England's Jonny Bairstow.
Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) has suspended three members for getting into an altercation with Australia players following Jonny Bairstow's controversial dismissal in the second Ashes Test at Lord's on Sunday.
Senior Indian off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, who has often been subjected to unfair criticism for running out batters at non-striker's end for backing too far, has backed Alex Carey's decision to run out a wandering Jonny Bairstow on the final day of the second Ashes Test. Australia took a 2-0 lead after winning the second Test at the Lord's by 43 runs. However, there was some controversy when Bairstow (10), along with skipper Ben Stokes (155), was about to forge a partnership, ducked a slow bouncer from Cameron Green and ventured out of the crease thinking that the ball was already 'dead'.
