IIRC there was a similar incident at an England v India test match back around 2010 or 2011. On that occasion, I think Ian Bell was either stumped or run out (when backing up) on the stroke of lunch. During the lunch break, there was a discussion between the two teams and the appeal was withdrawn.

Two faced snidey cheating aussie cunts. Their whole nation persecuted Broad for years for not walking when getting an edge (like no aussie has ever done that), Broad was sent death threats, threats to his family etc. What they did today was fucking pathetic and blatant, they should be booed to fuck in the remaining 3 matches. Cunts

I was there and couldn't believe it had been awarded. I was hoping City would pass it to the keeper, this was clearly a mistake. It wasnt a dive he kicks the turf !

All Bairstow had to do is stay in his crease till the umpire said “over” but I’m not sure they do in pro cricket , just pass the bowler his cap. In local cricket over is clearly said

The Bairstow dismissal leaves a real sour taste in the mouth for me.

On the scorecard he has been given out stumped, which is a fucking nonsense. The ball was in the keepers gloves, Bairstow was in his ground and the ball at that time by the laws of the game was dead. It was last ball of the over and the Umpire should have called OVER, the Umpire did not apparently which is piss poor as that also indicates the ball is dead. Bairstow left his ground assuming the ball was dead and was then run out, it was not a stumping.

Technically yes, Bairstow was out, but then technically any batsman who leaves his ground at any time can be given out whether the ball is dead or not. Go for a drinks break and you can knock the stumps over and its out.

Cricket has like many sports has unwritten ettiquette, the Aussies as is there want trashed that today and the whole game is poorer for i

Cummins should just have called Bairstow back in the goodwill of the game which is allowed in cricketing rules …….. he didn’t he and his team exuberantly celebrated instead. Absolute fucking cheating cunts , you reap what you sow Man City know everything about that . Australian cricket cheat to gain an advantage fuck them absolute cunts of the highest order.

Fuck me can you imagine LFC acting that quick ? Dippers would take years investigating and still not do anything

Takes around 29 years on the waiting list before becoming a member.

Interesting that Strauss says it wasn’t premeditated. It was 100% premeditated. If you watch carefully Carey released the ball when Bairstow was in his crease.

I seem to remember a VERY soft penalty going our way for a supposed foul on Lampard (IIRC).
