Bairstow Dismissal

[PlayerComparisons]

It was completely dire, but I can't pretend anyone else wouldn't have done the same thing.

Players will love to claim that they're the ones playing in the spirit of the game but they're all liars.

If Mankading is then it is. If Mankading is not then it is not.

Fair and simple.

Haven't seen this but as a lover of funny dismissals I'm going to say it's fine.

In the game of cricket, you have to have on your thinking cap at all times.

I have no problem with it. It's woke Stokes up and he is fuming. He's taking it out on the bowlers.

Seriously though I'd have took it if it was the other way round.

When Ben Stokes said his England team were "saving Test cricket" a lot of fans were asking "Saving Test cricket from who?"



...Now we know.

What's Michael Vaughan said?

I think the opposite.

Bairstow ****ed up, like Starc did, and the laws were applied correctly - nothing to see here

It's out. I'd have sympathy if it's a ten year old kid playing his or her first ever game. Not for a test cricketer. Naive.

Problem is the ten-year-old now thinks it's the way to play the game.

Stay in your crease. Then the issue wouldn't arise.

We're you happy when England ran out Grant Elliot in 2008 after his collision with Ryan Sidebottom?

Was so disappointed when Dhoni called back Ian Bell all those summers ago. And when Ashwin was roasted for the Butler runout in India. Both were legit cricketing dismissals.
If you can't stay inside the crease until the ball is dead then it is fair to run you out. You can be English or Aussie or Indian. The rules are the same.
Grinning at the fact that Bairstow will think twice before putting on the "I am a busy batsman and I own the pitch" act again with that body language forgetting the very basics of cricket.
Watching the dismissal in loop. So satisfying, really.
As the great man would say "Cricket is the winner here"

No

Yes it was hilarious, especially when we ended up winning and Danny V went mental.

It’s perfectly fair to dismiss someone like that IMHO.

Have avoided the Ashes sub forum so I’ll just say this about the various incidents in this game: the Ashes brings out the worst in everyone involved.

This series so far proves the adage that history repeats first as tragedy and then as farce.
