It's The Ashes (again)

[SuperBob2002]

What was Bairstow doing? Ridiculous. Australia will get called out, but why? They've played to the rules. Bairstow hasn't. It's idiotic and it's potentially gonna cost us. Pratt.

Both umpires are looking away, it's 'out' to the letter of the law but it's basically a mankad.

So it's legal and within the rules of the game and yet another avoidable England dismissal. If we do go on to lose this Test we've only ourselves to blame. It feels like England have lost these two Tests rather than Australia winning them with outstanding cricket. We've beaten ourselves and that's what makes it so frustrating.
