Legendary Australia cricketer Glenn McGrath was left disappointment by the third umpire's decision on a controversial catch taken by Mitchell Starc on Day 4 of the second Ashes Test. During England's chase of 371 runs in the final innings of the game, Ben Duckett got an edge and Starc took a diving catch at fine third man region. Upon finishing the catch, the Australia star had a big smile on his face, confident that he did enough to send the England batter packing.
Ben Stokes produced another astonishing Ashes performance at Lord’s, but his dazzling century was not enough to save England from defeat as Jonny Bairstow’s controversial dismissal sparked fury in the second Test.
Jonny Bairstow's dismissal on Day 5 of the second Ashes Test between England and Australia sparked major controversy at Lord's with the Australian players getting booed by a major section of the crowd. During the 52nd over of England's second innings, Bairstow ducked a bouncer from Cameron Green and after the ball was safely inside wicket-keeper Alex Carey's gloves, he decided to leave his crease to have a chat with Ben Stokes on the non-striker end. However, the ball was not dead yet and a direct hit from Carey resulted in a massively controversial run-out. It is common practice among batters to inform the keeper or the umpire before they leave the crease after any ball but Bairstow did not do it on this occasion and Australia decided to not withdraw their appeal.

Lyon, playing in his 100th consecutive Test, is suspected to have torn his right calf while running to catch a ball on day two of the second Ashes Test at Lord's. But on Saturday, he hobbled onto the batting crease and helped Australia add 15 runs to increase their lead to 370 runs.
