"They Tarnished Cricket FOREVER!" Sir Geoffrey Boycott On Australia's Controversial Win
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- Piers Morgan Uncensored is joined by former England cricketer Sir Geoffrey Boycott, Conservative peer Lord Marland, Australian cricket commentator Melinda Farrell and Associate Editor of the Daily Mirror Kevin Maguire to discuss Australia's controversial win against England in the Ashes Test match after wicket-keeper Alex Carey stumped out Jonny Bairstow after the batsman thought play was dead.
Piers suggests that he believes the blame lies with the captain Pat Cummins for not getting the decision overturned. Boycott agrees and believes that it is disappointing to see the captain not request for it to be reversed but finds it equally disappointing that he has not come out and apologised.
Sir Geoffrey Boycott also adds that this has tarnished the game of cricket and believes that things like this will turn the game into gamesmanship and trying to find loopholes and advantages over the other team which is not what cricket is about.

Unlike McCollum there was no trickery from Carey he threw it straight away, no tricks bairstow made a mistake, the ball never stopped moving, the ball wasn’t dead.
“Spirit of game” when losing
“ Presence of mind “ when winning
Best comment yet.
Summed up in the best way
You NAILED it!

Maradona’s wish must be granted - Eliminating England with the right hand one time 😂😂😂. *What a bunch of losers!* CRYING BABIES. First Butler and then Bairstow, extremely stupid players
Michael Vaughan said he would have done the same thing as Cummins. Strauss, Hussain and Atherton all said they had no problem with it. Bairstow left his crease prematurely the 3 previous balls and it caught up with him. Brilliant keeping by Carey. Cummins rightly upheld it. The only people who tarnished cricket were the Lords crowd.
Tow
I agree Aussies are winners
Dozey from Bairstow🥳
And the clown English cricket team, among others lol
When you start playing cricket at about 8 years old we’ve all got out like that. You get cross, spit the dummy out and say it’s not fair but your teacher tells you to stay in your crease til the ball is dead and you don’t do it again. This is a schoolboy error, doing it at test level is beyond embarrassing!
First rule you learn. Every single ball, a wicketkeeper is looking for the wondering batsman.
Not according to Beaky Boycott who utilised his ex-wife's head as a basketball in his anger management therapy.
@@Winteriscoming... Oh lighten up and have a shower Geoffrey, even your own teammates wouldn't share a hotel room when you were on tour here Downunder. Standing in front of a fan and pissing at it doesn't qualify as taking a shower anywhere outside Yorkshire.
@@Winteriscoming... Far more sense than you babbling with some sense of moral virtue about the spirit of a game which you admit to having clearly seriously infringed yourself albeit notably without disclosing what exactly you did to get such a suspension and requirement to provide a written apology comparative to those that you feel the moral right to criticise. Hypocrite much there Beaky?
They weren’t complaining when Bairstow was doing it, and ask Paul Collingwood how he feels about McCallum taking the high road on this when he did exactly the same thing.
McCallum is a great example, he apologised, Cummings do the same
@@joshuafield8224 well, to be fair, we need to wait 10 years . . . just like McCallum did. What's that? But this is different? . . . yeah, of course it is . . .
Boycott should read the MCC's preamble about the "Spirit of the Game". In that it talks about "accepting the umpires decision". By this standard, England is the only one not playing by the "spirit of the game". Funny how Bairstow tried the exact same thing in this match - just wasn't good enough to execute it properly. Ask Colin De Grandholme about England and "spirit of the game". Double standards being applied by England here - selective memory is a fine thing.
Piers goes on about how "everyone" felt wrong about it, and making the "world" feel good about what happened. Except the world feels it was absolutely correct to take the wicket, its only the english that are crying foul, where nothing is foul to start with. If anyone should apologise, it should be England.
The voice of the world has announced their view
Maybe NZ had felt the same that although that 4 off the bat of Ben Stokes while completing the run (2019 WC final) was within the laws of cricket, it might be against the “spirit” of cricket, and Stokes (and England) should have had said, we’re not taking these runs and we don’t want a victory like this. Guess what, the same England didn’t say anything, no TV shows about it, nothing, Stokes becomes the hero, and England celebrates. Time to take it back dude!!
Stokes did actually say to the umpires at the time to not give the 4 but the umpires said they had to.
How can you not take runs? 😂
Well said! I don’t hear Geoffrey ever mentioning that incident
Made good sense Geoffrey!
Well said
Bairstow has literally tried to do this multiple times to Australia. Absolutely fucking hilarious.
Exactly👍☝️
Any of these idiots read the rules he was out experts my behind Geoff said it it's the rules he's out
Bollocks has he
@@RaferJeffersonIII he did a missed hahaa
@@RaferJeffersonIII most certainly did!
What Boycott misses in his pointless analogy is that bodyline was bloody dangerous. That's why Australians were up in arms about it, not because they lost. He also can't say why it was such a terrible thing to do, he did say however that Bairstow did the wrong thing though. Why does anyone need to apologize for following the rules? He's the very epitome of the "old man yells at cloud" meme.
He also misses the fact that England employed a faux-Bodyline attack themselves the day before this happened. 3 hours of bouncers with a predominantly leg-side field.
Body line is dangerous can do without it
@jasonwilson1578 so did Australia in both innings.
@@davidbetts9332 We bowled short, but not every ball for 3 hours on end. And not with the fields England had set.
To be fair though, England's pop-gun attack (with the exception of Tongue) shouldn't have troubled us as much as they did with it anyway. The up and down nature of the wicket didn't help.
I wonder what kind of deck England will order for the next match #spiritofcricket
What Geoffrey Boycott - and his like - misses is that Bodyline was dangerous, the batsmen were targeted, with an intent to cause injury, if they did not step out of the way. In fact one Australian batsman was indeed struck by the ball & had to be taken off the field. Douglas Jardine is on record, on more than one occasion, as saying that he 'hated' Australians.
I don't see England offering back the world cup that they didn't legitimately win over NZ? LoL..
There is a massive difference between the bodyline issue of the 30's, which was a direct threat to the safety and health of the batsman, and a clever piece of stumping by Alex Carey, where no one but the batsman's innings and honour was at risk. What happened was, Carey was particularly observant that Bairstow was very cavalier about protecting his crease and not waiting for the umpire to call over. When you watch the video Carey didn't hesitate and was opportunistic in achieving an outcome. Where Bairstow was lax in his duty as a batsman, Carey was on his game. When all is said and done it was the umpires who called it OUT! Why are you Brits so adamant on blaming the Aussies for playing what can only be called strategic top grade cricket. This is what you chaps have to remember, this is cricket at it's highest level, so a lesson for those who aren't paying attention and shame on those who call foul for what can only be called a very clever piece of cricket. It seems to me the only ones bringing disrepute to the game and not holding to the spirit of the game are those who abused the players.
What’s also important to remember England were asked to stop and they didn’t!
I think another good point about the bodyline series is exactly what Boycott said. Australia felt this wasn't something that should continue moving forward, and they pushed for changes to the laws so it wouldn't.
THAT is the proper role of "the spirit of cricket". The "spirit" itself is too nebulous an idea to be something that directly dictates what can and can't happen. That's what the laws of the game are for. As Piers says, you really only know the spirit has been violated after the fact, when something happens that you feel wasn't what was intended to happen. Rather, the spirit of cricket is the thing that we use to decide what the laws should be.
So I'm all up if, as in the bodyline series, someone wants to use this incident to start a conversation about whether these sorts of stumping are a good thing that we should keep allowing, or something we should revise the laws so they can't happen. That's a an excellent "spirit of cricket" discussion. But what I definitely don't think is "within the spirit of cricket" is to cite the "spirit of cricket" in order to fault the Australians for playing to the laws as they stand.
@@leighhargreaves4104it's my understanding that England employed Bodyline against India and the crowds rioted making the MCC re think the rules .
@harryworth8527: at last one really wise person who knows what’s he’s talking about, you tell them that they are a pack of whinging English goons.
@@leighhargreaves4104 Boycott seems to think the Bodyline example helps his case. But it’s actually a perfect example of how australia did nothing wrong under the current laws of the game
if England can enjoy wc19 win then I can't see a reason for Pat to feel guilty here
Spirit of the Game exhibit A: Bairstow attempted the exact same thing by trying to catch Marnus Labuschagne stepping out of his crease two days ago.
Spirit of the Game exhibit B: England coach Brendon McCullum has three instances of identical dismissals.{ Chris Mpofu-2005, Muthiah muralidharan- 2006 , Collingwood-2009} , (He then apologized after 10 years for one player SL.)
Spirit of the Game exhibit C: Broad edging a ball to slip but refusing to walk, an edge the English quick has since admitted to.
Spirit of the Game exhibit D: England keeper Ben Foakes stumping Irishman Andy Balbirnie after holding onto the ball for a far greater amount of time than what Carey did.
Spirit of the Game exhibit E: The MCC long room behaved disgracefully. Not surprisingly three MCC members are now suspended.
Spirit of the Game exhibit F: The crowd chanting that Australians are cheaters. Actually the only person convicted of cheating in this series is England's Moeen Ali.
Spirit of the Game exhibit G: England bowling 'Body-Line' on day 4, for a record 98% short balls. Also extremely boring to watch - the opposite of so-called "bazball" entertainment.
Spirit of the Game exhibit H : England vs New Zealand (2008) Grant Elliott Run out done by England players. while NZ BATTERS taking run single and England Sidebottom collided with him. Suddenly Collingwood took ball run out Elliott.
I won't add Duckett not walking Starc's catch, because we respect that rules are rules.
I also won't add England's controversial win over New Zealand in the World Cup final involving Stokes himself(when NZ player throwing ball to the stumps his bat intervent got him 6 runs) as there's been no shortage of comments about that.
ECB; RULES AND SPIRIT= RULES FOR THEM AND NOT FOR ME🤣🤣
I also added Spirit of the Game exhibit I: Ollie Robinson telling Usman Khawaja to "F*** off" after dismissing him on 141.
If the cricket law says its a run out, it's a run out. If England were winning the ashes, it wouldn't even be an issue
In fact it was officially a stumping (not a run out). Quite a brilliant bit of keeping indeed.
because Carey threw the ball as soon as was physically possible it is a stumping not even a run out, entirely Bairstows fault.
A professional cricketer should know better than to move from the crease without checking where the ball is. The keeper threw the ball as soon as he caught it because the batsman moved, he could have been attempting a run as the far end batsman had moved down the wicket? Poor play by Bairstow.
it's only tarnished by the ones who can't accept the discission by the ruling body, umpires in this case. The Starc catch/ non catch was accepted by the Australians , yes Cummings asked for an explanation from the umpires , regardless of his own thoughts , moved on, and did notcarry on like squealing pigs in a slaughter house. Alex Carey had every right to throw down the stumping chance, it's part of cricket from the under 10s park to the international arena. w/keepers are taught from an early age that this form of dismissal is within the laws of cricket. England, take a slice of humble pie and stop tarnishing this beautiful game
You either play within the rules, or you don't. You can't have it both ways. Feelings don't matter, facts do!
I think Boycott is wrong on this, Mike Atherton has stated that he would never have withdrawn the appeal. To compare this incident to Bodyline is over the top, players lives where in danger what went on in that series was stand alone in Ashes history.
Several other English captains have also said that they don't have a problem with the dismissal. They're more concerned that Bairstow lost his wicket in such a basic manner when England were still in a position to challenge for the win.
England are really embarrassing themselves by being so petulant over this. especially when it was the mcc who made this rule and they tried the same dismissal against Australia in the first innings.
My wife also used the Boycott method when we argue. She brings up stuff from the 1930’s and refers to that specifically. Problems is we only met in 2010.
This is pure comedy. Does everyone forget broad not walking? Not comments were made then about the spirit of the game. Duckett could have walked the day before when Starc took the catch in the spirit of the game. Bairstow tried the same thing in first innings, not very in line with the spirit of the game. England media are comedic, especially now bazball is 0-2 😂
its just outright hypocrisy.
Geoffrey Boycott should apologise to everybody for his batting
I believe all wicket keepers will have a shot at the stumps, Bairstow himself had done the same thing when England were bowling, He did it for the same reason get the batsman out. The difference is the Aussie hit the wicket the English keeper didn’t. If they persist on calling it unsportsmanlike well it’s both sides. But apparently it’s only unsportsmanlike when you lose
Wether he tried it or was good enough to hit the wickets or not is irrelevent, it would have been if stokes would have upheld the appeal to send the batsman packing to which we will never know.
The English cricket team and its fans are having one of the most enjoyable meltdowns in sporting history following Jonny Bairstow forgetting he was in the middle of a cricket test at Lords and going for a little walk.
“We are deeply upset that a lawful action that we have tried many times ourselves has worked against us this time, which feels unfair,” said Professor of Ethics at Oxford University Stuart Broad.
Acknowledge the great Titus O'Reilly for that gem.
Well said
I just always enjoy England fans having a meltdown, this happens more in football but funny anyways.
A vocal minority are, Keppelhead. I'm English, and for me it was out, fair n square !! Just another big juicy headline for the Murdoch type media.
Brilliant
I know that i've always scratched the crease with my boot to tell both umpires and all the players that i consider it the end of the over. I assume everyone does that.
Afterall, as a batsman i'm in charge and i make these decisions.
I cannot believe a test standard batsman could make such a stupid schoolboy mistake at such an important time.
Bairstow did that also
@@yingyang1008 It was sarcasm.
2019 World Cup Win... Within the Spirit of the Game👏
What abt fairplay in world cup final when eng got 4 of a throw hitting stokes bat..i don't know why this controversy is about..i don't think it was any faul play..ball was not dead..Johnny was casual ..carry was attentive..he immediately threw the ball as he collected..
Was Jonny Bairstow’s dismissal at Lords a breach of the Spirit of Cricket? This is a question I have been inundated with, so I thought it best to share my thoughts publicly by asking everyone a question or eight to consider…
1. "Have you seen any umpire tell a fielding side that the keeper standing back is not allowed to attempt a stumping?
2. "Was there a complaint from anyone when Bairstow tried to stump Marnus exactly the same way in the first innings?
3. "What has Jonny Bairstow said about his dismissal? He has been very quiet. Why?
4. "My experience is when people don’t like a dismissal under the Laws of Cricket, they cite the Spirit of Cricket to support their view.
5. "Which part of the codified Preamble (the Spirit of Cricket) was breached by the fielding side?
6. "What did the fielding side do in effecting a legitimate dismissal that unfairly impacted the ability of the batter in their attempt not to be dismissed? (Did they run into him or distract him or prevent him making good his ground?)
7. "Should a batter be immune from dismissal as per the Laws by simply being negligent (and leaving his ground too early)?
8. "Did England retire Ben Duckett when they disagreed with the Starc catch decision as per the Laws and umpires’ decision?
"The hypocrisy and lack of consistency from some people and groups is quite interesting and concerning for the future of our game.
Lol Piers ,Ask Stokes to give back those extra 4 runs in the World Cup final 😂😂😂
@simonhearn2028 Totally different... ..........................................
@simonhearn2028 totally different.............................................?????????
@simonhearn2028 how? in the "spirit of the game" give those 4 runs back and hence the trophy
how stupid, that was totally different
@@catherinearcher1106and you want to overturn wickets instead? 😂
Piers "they definitely started phone hacking AFTER I left" Morgan. What a disgrace.
Stumping is part of the game get over it ffs. The only reason the match was even close was Ben stokes, the rest of the batsman were useless
Nice way for England to deflect from the big issue here and that is that England's bowlers are not up to the level of Ashes cricket. England's batters swing that bat without fear and when it goes wrong they do not know how to consolidate an innings (its not T20). The England batting innings is over so quickly these days that their bowlers are not given enough rest so are tired having to backup so quickly. At the end of the day when you have 2 teams competing against one another, 1 team is looking to entertain and the other is looking to win. One of these team is up 2-0 and that is the not the team looking to entertain. C'mon Aussies.
I would always hear the mantra in Tests was to give your bowlers as much time off to come back fresh. To paraphrase, there are two teams out there and only one is playing Bazball.
I love the look and feel of Bazball, but when it comes to winning (especially the Ashes) give me traditional cricket and leave Bazball for shorter forms of the game.
The double standards are crazy! Give New Zealand the world cup
Poor old England. They kicking up a stink to distract the English fans from the the fact they will be the first English team to lose ashes series on home soil since 2001 I think. So why not ride this as long as they can and if they lose the series they can just manipulate the fans to think if only they had not lost the bairstow wicket in the manner they did they could have tied the series and had a chance. I ain’t falling for that nonsense. You have a chance to win the next 3. If you don’t, bairstow or not, Australia go home with the ashes and you ride with your new found record into the sunset.
Might finally wipe that smirk off Bairstow's face. What happened to 2 bouncers per over when England bowled 98% bouncers for 2 hours?? Such bad losers. "We should be two nil up", guess boycott now identifies as winning the last two tests lol. "We'll be ready", yeah we were ready two weeks ago, check your calendar.
Exactly. It’s hilarious that boycott brought up bodyline.
broad even had a go at the Australians for bowling bouncers at him and said "its more fun when its length". Its like he forgot what he did the day before
4:39 Please, Piers, Melinda was almost finished describing the whys and wherefores and you cut her off. One of the best Ashes wickets. Carey using his brain & Bairstow having a brain fade. Beautiful wicketkeeping.
It was a great opportunity for a wicket and Australia took the wicket..
As much as I thought this was a somewhat snidey way of getting a player out, you just simply can't go comparing it to the body line incident, which was deeply embarrassing for, I'm sure most fair minded Englishmen at the time.
The truth of the matter is we couldn't cope with Bradman and so they tried to intimidate him, I think he still averaged around 60 in the test series, despite our bowlers trying to hurt him.
In the 1st innings Bairstow tried to do the same thing to an Australian batsman. And as a wicket keeper he should have known it could then happen to him, if he hasn't seen or heard the umpire call over. Morgan talks over the reporter when she tries to talk about Bairstow trying to do it earlier. Fair decision, Bairstows mistake.
Solid arguments Geoff. Comparing it to a completely different incident 90 years ago in which everyone involved is now dead .
And was condemned by both sides (t’wasn’t just Australians deploring Bodyline, Geoffrey! Also, how do you compare a legitimate - at the time, yes - but very dangerous tactic (no helmets back then) to an underarm lob at the stumps? Not sure if he’s argument stands up.
And people were physically injured...
and it was NOT with in the rules at all, it was unfair intimidatory bowling but the umpires did not have the balls intervene.
Yeah, i don't think half of the young audience have ever heard of bodyline🤷
Surprised he didnt drag up uncovered wickets! Put him back in his neandrathol cave and throw away the key
As Geoffrey Boycott has always stated ( quite rightly)
You should never give the opposition any chance to to take your wicket.
Within the rules, that was a fair dismissal.
@@Mickyway When Stokes batted away a ball from hitting his stumps, was that spirit of fair play?, when Broad refused to leave the field after being called out, that must have spirit of fair play? There are hundreds of examples, but because England are 2.0 down the spirit of fair play arrives at the station.
@davidpvt6817 Of course it was.
Did you listen to any other words that were spoken in this interview?
Ask Boycott”s wife, how great he is !!
@@tommcculloch5278stokes - obstructed the field - OUT !!!!
Im a fervent England fan, but I have to say I put the blame firmly on Bairstow...Nobody goaded or tricked him into leaving his crease, he left of his own volition and the Aussies saw an opportunity...village from Bairstow...

Aussie Breakfast TV Hosts are pissing themselves laughing over here this morning!...🇦🇺😂😂😂...Oh dear!!

I’m a cricket tragic from New Zealand, so obviously I have a bias against Australia because of their dominance against us. Bairstow fu&*ed up. It was great awareness from Carey. I’m a club cricketer, and I would have walked with my head down if I did what Bairstow did. The whinging is pathetic.
Poms are very good at crying. 🥵 😰 😭

That's why they brought her on, her goal in this interview is to increase her instagram followers. An actual current or former Aussie cricketer would have made Piers and Geoffrey look silly(ier).
Get ian chappell or someone on there
In my days of playing club cricket you never ever trusted the opposition wicket keeper. They were as big a threat as the bowler. Bairstow was taking a mental shortcut and as wicket keeper he should have known better. I don't believe for a second that England would have withdrawn the appeal if it had been the other way around.
Totally agree mate. i think Stokes is full of crap saying that… he would have gladly taken Warner or Labsuchagne’s wickets if Bairstow hit the stumps & the shoe was on the other foot
I agree with the Bairstow's mistake. How would explain a stumping dismissal from a fast bowler? Last ball of the over and he tapped his shoe twice. I think it's enough for the opposition to know that all's good. He wasn't trying to steal a bye, he was simply dumb. Just imagine Bairstow building a partnership with Stokes they could have pulled up the game.
🦘 should have the courage to say. You left the crease and by rules you are out, but we are capable enough to get you out the legitimate way. Lyon coming out to bat limping and building that partnership with Star was so courageous. Anyways, If I was Bairstow I would feel cheated or hiding behind "Rules"
@@hodgkinsonstephen6837 gone are those days when international cricketers played for fun.

Old spirit of the game is not as important anymore.... winning is.
There is now a new way to play with the spirit of the game and that's to except the rules of the game as law.
Bairstow, stokes and others just have to stop whining and focus on the next 3.
Your time is not as old as sir Geoffrey's time
Boycott's comparison of Bodyline to an out-of-crease wicket is not an apples-for-apples comparison. Bodyline was an attempt to weaponize the bowler against the batsmen, by bowling hard and fast directly at them, in a deliberate attempt to FORCE the player out of crease, lest the player stay where he was and get injured. Essentially, that boils down to a deliberate attempt to injure the player. Jardine conceived of it as a strategy to try and take new players like Bradman out of play, because of how well they could hit the ball. Several players were badly injured by the Bodyline strategy, which included head injuries and concussions. To say that taking a sneaky wicket is in any way the same thing is a false equivalence and a gross mischaracterization. It makes one scenario seem a lot worse than it is, and the other sound not as bad as it was, by removing all the necessary context.
ADDITION. Bodyline was were was a bowler bowled the ball directly at the opponents head without the ball hitting the wicket. That is to say, the point was to bowl full tossers at peoples heads to intimidate them with no chance of a wicket being taken so was NOT in the spirit of the rules at all. It was only a matter of time before someone got killed. They couldn't call it "headline" for obvious reasons... the headline being "headline"! A full toss at waist height is not a problem. One at your head is......
👏
He is not comparing the two. He is pointing out the aussies we’re the first to complain about something being outside the spirit of the game.
Geoffrey is clueless...what a bad take from him.
@philmurdoch1203 by comparing them, as if they were equivalent. They're not. One is a genuine concern based on player safety, the other is a bunch of sore losers complaining over an uncontroversial wicket, because of the batsman's error. Which he doesn't dispute, I might add. It's in the codified rules, and that's how it's always been played, it's only become an issue because some toffy-nosed brits don't like it!
If Carey's throw missed the stumps and it went to the boundary, it would be overthrows. I can assure you that England would not be asking the umpires to remove the runs from their score.
no they wouldn't, bairtstow was going to talk with stokes at the other end. and also Bairstow after playing that delivery, marked his guard with his shoes which clearly indicates that he is not going down the pitch for runs. the law says thats out and thats fine. but if i was the Australia captain i would've said thats not out cause that dismissal was corny and kiddish. I remember viv richards had a clear and fair opportunity to make a run out at the non strikers end but he didnt cause he know it wouldnt be a natural run out.
What if what if, international wicket keepers don't miss and would'nt go anywhere near the boundary. You're point is gay and stupid.

As a wicketkeeper Bairstow should have known better, especially seeing as every wicket keeper has attempted to get batsmen out in the same way for decades.
To steal someone else’s clever insight, that’s exactly the point, believing Bairstow is a wicketkeeper is the first mistake.
He actually tried it on day 3 vs Marnus
The first rules were drawn up in the 1700s, that could be one of the oldest rules.
I am amazed that some commenters are so biased that they cannot understands the Rules.
It blows my mind that a professional cricketer wanders around outside his crease when the ball is still live and has been doing it for at least 2 years. Australians have taken pot shots at his wicket in the past.
I'm an England fan and supporter, the wicketkeeper instantly launched the throw in, as they do constantly, Bairstow wondered off without even a glance back. I'm afraid he's out. Nothing to do with the spirit of the game.

Everyone is doing that leaving crease thinking it is over... It is a long day and to be that concentrated is not possible... If they do so then in every match you can out atleast 5 batsmen out like mankad...

Bairstow attempted the same thing a few days earlier, McCullum (who as a kiwi is my cricketing hero) got people out in the same way during his career, and England literally won and celebrated a cricket world cup through drawing the game twice after being awarded an extra run against the rules. They never won that game. So, England can't complain in this situation at all. Not only that, but anyone in their right mind would consider Mitchell Starc's "catch" a clean catch. Clearly it was a catch but because of the way the rules are written it was over turned. I can't stand the Australian cricket team, but they haven't done anything wrong in this situation and what they have done, England have done many times before.
This comment should be pinned to give context, particularly as Bairstow himself attempted the same thing two days earlier against Marnus, they can't cry when they tried the same thing.
Thanks for that.
See, this guy's a kiwi and he agrees with us. Indians agree with us too. The Poms have underestimated their own hypocrisy and egos. Except for a few like Kevin here that have sense.
@@dheath3697 What! Bairstow did exactly the same thing under the captaincy of Ben Stokes???? Who said he would not condone such an action via appeal??? Surely not! Hypocrisy (at best). lol
@@hodgkinsonstephen6837 Stokes has had years to state that they didn't really win the world cup!
I recall an incident in an ODI between England and NZ at the Oval (2008) Sidebottom and Elliot collided while attempting a single, knocking Elliot to the ground (nobodies fault, just a sporting incident), the ball was thrown to the wicketkeeper who took off the bails with Elliot still on the ground stranded outside the crease. Captain Collingwood (current England coach) was told by the umpire if you appeal he is out under the laws of the game. Appeal made, Elliot out. What goes around comes around. I rest my case.
Ben Stokes showed absolute Spirit of Cricket when he told umpires during the 2019 WC final tht he won't accept the 4 runs which deflected from his bat..when umpire said the runs are within the rules..he deliberately let the next ball be dot and allowed NZ to win their first WC ....

If you have actually played cricket at grassroots level it was a very intelligent dismissal and it’s a basic rule to never leave the crease until ball was dead
Agreed. A lot of the commentary about this is either coming from people who have seldom, if ever, played the game (aside from Sir Geoffrey, who has clearly lost the plot) OR who have another agenda.
@@anthonyjames7534 Sir Geoffrey never had the plot. One of the most boring batsmen in the history of the game and a bloke who bowled with his cap on. Lovely chap, but 'out there' even for a Yorkshireman.

@@AndyGraceMedia yes he was boring to watch. But he played with grit, determination and prized his wicket. Qualities I admire.
It's sad to see him being rolled out on such a lowbrow program and being exploited for the weight his words carry. I expect this from Morgan. And well Lord "Haw Haw", who is he anyway. But Geoffrey....
You would have thought they would have learned from the arrogance of Ian Bell in 2011-but if you expect the Aussies to be soft like Dhoni & the Indians were back then forget about it & I guarantee that neither Ganguly in the 2000's or Kohli currently would be recalling anybody either & nor should they. Stokes did not recall de Grandhomme last summer when England did the same to him, moral bastion Broad was begging the umpire to give him out & all the biased English media, broadcasters & fans were singing the praises of the fielder that did it as quick thinking genius.
I truly underestimated how low England had sunk. Now they cannot even cope with a simple and obvious dismissal in cricket, and want second chances handed to them when it doesnt suit.
Apparently they need their batsmen to also be the one deciding when an over is finished, when the ball becomes dead...plus new rules that you cannot stump anyone on the last ball of an over (just in case the batsman makes a mistake), and indeed no taking advanatage of any batsman that has a brain fade or makes a genuine mistake.
Cummins should have said Bairstow you are out but consider this as a last warning and we will get out the legitimate way. Fast baller bowled the last ball of the over, no connection with the bat, no attempt to steal a single, haven't left the crease till the ball hit the keeper's gloves, tapped his shoe twice to say all's good but just because the law says it he has to depart is a shame to cricket. Had he scored a 50-60 runs that could have tilted the game in England's favor. If it was that straight forward it wouldn't have been the headlines today.
symptomatic of the woke culture that's taken hold there
@@Ammar.hashir Why would he want to say that ?
Its just a stumping mate. He'd have no reason to say it. He's just OUT.
You might ask if there was anything controversial, but there wasnt. He;s out of his crease and got stumped. Only some people have a problem with it and 95% of those are English...that says everything.
Totallly agree... in World Class Cricket, rules matter, mistakes get punished & rulings will sometimes go against you / sometimes with you!
@@Ammar.hashir Bairstow had no intentions to take a run, agreed, but he was out as per law, on technical ground, but you think Cummins should have called him back. However, Duckett was caught by Starcy well and good, but the catch was invalidated on technical grounds, again, as per the laws and rules of the game, but the entire Lords erupted when he was given not-out.
I honestly can't see why Cummins should have called back Bairstow but it was absolutely fine for Duckett to continue batting, backed by all the cheers and applauds of the Pommie fans. You can't have the cake and eat it mate. That's delusional.
Funny how Boycott is so worried about the ‘spirit of the game’………yet doesn’t have a problem slapping his misses. Is that fair play?

How could Bairstow consider the ball dead when he didn't even know where the ball was? He never looked. Nothing underhand nothing dirty nothing unfair.
way to ruin the English argument with reality.
He started walking straight after the ball had passed his head, complete space cadet.
Acted like he owned the bleedin stadium!
The ball was caught and thrown in the same movement. So 'live'. If the batsman then walks out of his crease with a reckless lack of awareness of what is happening in the field, you can't blame the WK. Sportsmanship has nothing to do with this. At the highest level, schoolboy errors are quite rightly going to be punished ruthlessly. Anyone playing test cricket really should know that.
Carey's action was one continuous movement. Thus the game was not 'over'.
Exactly. The umpire had not called "over". The ball was not dead. Schoolboy error by Bairstow and somehow it's Australia's faut. It is very hard to understand the commentary about Bairstow's dismissal from where I sit.
@@anthonyjames7534 - not that the umpires would have known - both of them were head down or looking away; if they'd called 'Over' it would have been the wrong call, because as you noted, the ball wasn't dead.
The over is not over until the umpires say it is-funny how England are so arrogant they keep making schoolboy errors like not running their bat in, wandering down the crease for a spot of gardening when the ball is still live etc.
@@anthonyjames7534 The same commentators, media & fans that were singing the praises of Pope when he did the same thing to de Grandhomme a year back, the same England captain complaining now about how he couldn't live with himself who didn't withdraw that appeal & lived with himself fine, the bowler then was Broad who was shouting at the umpire to give Colin out & not telling Pope that is all he will be remembered for etc.
Also, a wicket keeper won't do that so instantaneously without observing a pattern.
The spirit of cricket didn't apply when they won a world cup. When Broad didn't walk after nicking it to first slip. Can't have double standards. In all honesty, credit to Carey for incredible awareness. Australia did nothing wrong. They ball wasn't dead yet!!!!

What is funny is that the vast majority of opinions actually side with the Aussie team. A number of former England players and captains applauded Carey's quick thinking. The blight on this game is from the toffs in the Long Room. Shouting out "cheat" when there was no cheating and allegedly trying to trip Warner & Uzi. Bringing up sandpapergate, when Mike Atherton was caught rubbing dirt out of his pocket on the ball and then the Murray Mints CHEATING in the 2005 Ashes series.
The thing I find most annoying is the 'lost opportunity' and 'haven't moved past Sandpapergate' drivel, which Piers Morgan pontificated at the time. Just because Aus did the wrong thing 5 years ago, and egregiously so, doesn't mean that from then on - perhaps forever - they must play to some moral standard higher than everyone else, including their opponents in highest stakes competitive matches. Australia and the relevant players were punished at the time - rightly, and the team has cleaned up its act so that, one thinks, it will never happen again. That's enough, without Aus having to then play on some kind handicap system for 5 years or eternity thereafter
Piers predictably brings up the sandpaper but conveniently forgets the Murray Mints of the 2005 ashes.
Aherton had dirt in the pocket, John Lever used vaseline.
Piers has a selective memory. Just let him bark, that’s what he does best.
Or Bodyline ...
That’s piers for you. He’s always very selective. Let him bark as that is what he is good at.
Yes there was Brylcream, deliberate abrasion on ground , spit (pretty much accepted) Murray mints as you say, which is basically enhanced spit but none quite as well organised as Sandpaper, bringing the art to it’s pinnacle …. But..Who knows these days, where the spirit of the game is scoffed at by so many superior experts,perhaps some inspired creative genius will emerge to outdo the Aussies improvements. …and yes, (to those who feel I am biased)it could even be an Englishmen. Cricket is becoming to woke anyway. I preferred it when they had a beer and a smoke at lunch.
If England cared about the spirit of the game, New Zealand won the world cup!
I've played cricket at the grassroots level. This kind of dismissal is not only accepted, but thought of as an awareness by the keeper and blunder by batsman
Agreed.
Absolutely!

Gully cricket has different rules man
Geoff Boycott was the opener in 1981 test team visiting India and in the first test, Krish Srikanth was run out by an English player for his customary wandering out of his crease at the end of the delivery.He was out according to rules.
Nobody called Srikanth back nor did anybody apologise.
In fact they were laughing at Srikanth..
That was John Emburey who ran out Srikkanth. Sir Geoffrey has got no right to lecture the Aussies. Typical English hypocrite
Hear hear. All too typical of English spirit of the game double standards. 😮😢😊😅
@@Tyronepeaderwe are legendary for it. Grown men still cry over the hand of God while failing to acknowledge we kicked absolute lumps out maradonna for 90 mins
That was different. That was mankadding at the bowlers end. This is a batsman who wonders out of his crease so consistently during play that the keeper actually threw the ball before he left the crease, predicting he would, and he did😂
Look at the footage. Bairstow was in his crease when Carey threw it and it hit after he left it. Brilliant play. As soon as Carey caught that and threw it straight back at pitch, ball was in play. Them if he pegged it and it missed the stumps and went to the boundary, England would be given 4 runs.
Bairstow should have turned and planted his bat in his crease, signalling he isn't running, before leaving his crease. Like juniors know to do and do almost everytime before leaving their crease.
How conveniently forgotten ! They should have allowed Mitchell Starcs catch although they conveniently hid behind the rules of the game
I was a keeper for 27 years, and I ran out at least half a dozen batsman that wandered out of their crease in the same way...the ball was still live, over was not called, the umpires were still in place, it's WELL within the rules, and I never had a player run out/stumped that complained about the 'letter of the game' and usually felt like idiots for being caught out for not paying attention....Bairstow has a habit of walking out....maybe he'll correct that now!? Carey had presence of mind where Bairstow didn't.

I guess the reason that it’s okay for Bairstow to try and throw down an Australian batsman’s stumps in the third innings of the test but it’s not okay for Carey to try and throw down an English batsman’s stumps in the fourth innings of the test is that unlike Carey Bairstow lacks the skill to hit the stumps and unlike Bairstow Marnus was smart enough to stay in his crease until the ball was dead.
ruclips.net/video/3_Y4th4AOLQ/видео.html
Exactly!
Yes, exactly. Makes Boycott sound like a dill, a silly old man from 1933.
It’s ok for the colonists to attempt a run out via the laws that were first determined at the Marylebone Cricket Club, but the convicts have ruined the game forever! Change the laws if required. Besides the catching rules need clarification following Starc’s 3rd umpire ruling as many other catches should have been overruled.
Different circumstances, lebuchagne was stepping out of his crease to gain an advantage on moving for a run during the middle of an over, not arguing the point bairstow was out regardless but it isn't the same
For Geoffrey Boycott to compare the Australians complaining about body line which resulted in multiple Australian players getting severely injured and one never playing cricket for his country again, to Bairstow leaving his crease is absolutely ridiculous.
The complaint about bodyline was that it could’ve legitimately ended Careers. The complaint about this is that England players are stupid and we are going to invoke the spirit of cricket anytime an English player is stupid.
Yeah to compare it to a series where bowlers were trying to hit batsmen in the head before helmets were in is a pretty good comparison isn’t it, just stupid of him to even try
Multiple players weren't injured. Woodville ducked into a good length ball. The series was half over b4 they started. The year before they were crowing about 2 fast bowlers who carved their way through opponents. They will do ANYTHING to win.
Well said 👍
Ah yes very good point. Remember the visiting England team complain about the ground at Sabina Park because they didn't want to face Courtney Walsh and Curtly Ambrose on that track. Isn't it the same also for the west indies on the same track facing fast bowling?
@stephenreeds3632 sounds like your so old you were there....typical Pom bring up an example 90yrs ago🤦♂️
Man, can’t believe the tantrum people have thrown over this! Johnny had a brain fade, simple as that! Carey caught it and threw it immediately, it’s not like he waited and sneakily did it. There’s footage of Johnny doing much worse in 2014 and being proud of himself
if you see the replay Carey has released the ball before Bairstow has even had a chance to move out of the crease. So it was premeditated.
@@sharif1306 all he had to do was turn around to see where the ball was and he would’ve been ok then. He was dozy and just had a brain fade. He shouldn’t even be in the team, his keeping is sub standard. He just dropped multiple catches in the 3rd test he should’ve caught

Sir Geoffrey Boycott fails to admit that Bairstow attempted the same technique a few days ago and draws on the 32-33 series, even then he blames us for Bodyline. The long room incident was disgraceful and the Australians must not walk the room.
Exactly. Bairstow attempts the same most test matches. Thought with all that practice he'd be better than Carey at it!
@jonnywyatt5522 Bairstow was definitely picked on his batting, he is a fumble foot with poor hands and the sideways movement of an Elephant.
Completely different scenario. The Aussies were batting out their crease to gain an advantage. This is good wicketkeeping to try to keep the batter closer to the stumps. You can tell by the batter's movement and expression that he didn't think the ball was dead.

@jameslong7128 right. Stokes would have withdrawn the appeal. That's definitely believable because England has a history of doing it? Remember the Elliott run out or Broad not walking after edging to slips?
The only difference was Bairstow missed, Carey didn't.
So true
Absolutely
100 %😅
Good one!
You also see Stokes, returning to the crease.
Stokes KNEW the rule!
Bairstow only threw the ball because Warner and marnus were batting outside of their crease. The reasoning behind why he did it was completely different. The Australian batsmen were trying to gain an advantage by batting out of their crease. In bairstows case he was gaining zero advantage. It was bad sportsmanship not to withdraw the appeal.
Geoffrey boycott should be boycotted he hates australia speaks about spirit of the game in that case where was he when England won world cup by icc rules 5runs were awarded for the overthrow which should have been four Brendon coaching England irony

@@posh0610 Please No
He truly sums up all that is wrong with the English. World would be a much better place without him.
Let's put it this way......the series is level at 2-2 and we're on day 5 in the last test and Australia are in bat and they require less than say 20 runs to win and have 1 wicket left and have number 10 and 11 in bat. The batsman is facing the ball and does exactly as Bairstow did and walked out of his crease thinking the ball is dead and Bairstow or whoever the keeper may be, throws the ball at the stumps and it hits and the batsman is out of his crease. England go up and celebrate the run out/stumping and England celebrate winning The Ashes. You honestly think Ben Stokes would then come out and say it's not in the spirit of the game and request that it is given not out? Don't be daft....you'll take the win as it's within the rules of the game what has been done!
Eloquently put! I'm English and I agree TOYALLY! All this whinging and whining isn't doing much for our reputation of being whinging poms.
Hey Geoffrey mate, if Carey had of missed the wickets and the ball rolled to the boundary for 4 runs, would stokes have rejected the runs??

Let's not get distracted from what was a great test. Bairstow switched off , Let's move on
Feels to me as if all cricket fans share this sentiment. Just the media blowing this up.

Agree with everything, but Starc did not legitimately catch that ball. How hard is it to complete a catch without the ball touching the ground?
@@arvindhmani06 you miss the point. Starc caught the ball successfully. But it was not out due to the interpretation of the rules. The Australian team accepted the umpire's decision and moved on. Starc accepted that he needs to improve.

Every club cricketer plays under these conditions every weekend. Why should international cricket be different. Either that or let AI govern the game. Simple, really.
Im sure everybody has seen by now, the video that has emerged of Bairstow stumping a batsman, a Mr Patel, when he raised his foot 1/2 an inch off the crease. Yes he appealed for the out and got it. Whats good enough for county cricket, is good enough everywhere. Bairstow was out fair and square, he did the big batsman No No, he walked away from the crease. Suck it up my Pommy cousins.
I don’t think the aussies did anything wrong. Stay behind the line until the ball is dead. Johnny is known for walking out early. The keeper did it instantly in one motion, he didn’t wait. I normally agree with pears but he is way off with this one
If a goal is scored in football because the goalkeeper "wasn't paying attention" during live play, it's a goal. If a batsman gets run out during live play because he wasn't paying attention, he is out. In what world are the Aussies the bad guys here? If the roles were reversed, the Aussie batsman would take all the blame from fans and media, not the opposition!

If English cricket fraternity finds this to be "tarnishing spirit of the cricket" they should give up their World Cup triumph in 2019 and request ICC for officially recognizing New Zealand as joint winners as well... Pelting stones on your opposition is easy, especially when you have lost the game... England only came close to the target because of the extravaganza termed Ben Stokes... Otherwise, Australia clearly was the better team across the first 2 tests and rightfully stand with a 2-0 lead in the series... It's high time England stops weeping over the Bairstow dismissal and focus on how to get back to winning ways in the upcoming games....
The whinging pom syndrome. It’s what they do best. Let them be. They only make themselves look foolish.
Get a wash and a shave daft lad
With all due respect to Sir Geoffrey… what the actual f*ck mate?! 😂
Now we have Geoffery Boycott (a man I used to admire) defending Bodyline and saying that the Australians whinged about it so much that MCC had to change the rules, when in fact it was the MCC who changed the rules after they witnessed it first hand in England the next season!
QE2 said - "Sir Geoffrey Boycott, I knight you for your services to insomnia in Australia".
The English whinged about the West Indians bowling bouncers which is a part of a bowler's armoury when the West Indies were riding high. The ICC decided to limit how many bouncers a bowler can bowl. England don't like it up em'.
Geoffery Boycott, convicted domestic abuser.
As a massive England fan. Australia were in every right to hit the stumps. If the ball hit the bat and went for 4 would we be complaining??? Does this bring back any memories? The World Cup.
As a Kiwi I blame the biased English officiating in the WC final, not the English team. But this is whataboutism and doesn't detract from the usual Australian cricket poor morality.
Well said

The comments about the world cup are two totally different things 😂 both teams and empires are still playing and actively still playing over. This one empires are moving already and Bairstow is moving The only person playing that over was wicker keeper and even then I think it was an accident . Yes it was Bairstow's fault and should have waited for over to be called but the way they went about it was pretty poor.
Good on you mate
This is hilarious, Kevin Maguire Melinda Farrell were spot on. There isn’t going to be a tit for tat because you look behind and see that the ball has settled and then it’s dead. The ball never settled, brilliant stuff by Carey. Poor sportsmanship shown here by English
Brainless Bairstow. Wandering off when the balls in play 🙃. Been an absolute disaster of a series for us so far and we've been made to look like rookies.
I love that. Ollie Pope incident, "but it still would be deemed in play." Boycott says the ump should say 'over' so the ball is still deemed in play. The whole cricket world just sees this as whinging poms.
they are a bunch of hypocrites
You know who's tarnished cricket?
Bairstow is to blame, but so is Stokes for fuelling it, the crowd for swallowing it and the members for losing the spirit of cricket. As a cricket fan, it is that spirit that lifts us above all other sports. The ability to lose graciously, to win humbly, to follow the rules, to accept an umpires decision and to acknowledge greatness in the other side - Stokes and Smith - that is what cricket is about. The spirit of cricket was missing here - but not by the Australian team.
Stokes fuelled it?? Shut up. He was asked the question
Well said. Even if a decision goes against you , appreciate the moment. Got us talking about the great game. It's not football. I was sorry the England fans chanted cheat. We got a load of overs to win it, this episode didn't lose us the game, the play in the game lost it. Ozzy's , congratulations, we might get you next time. Well played
@@Aman-nk5uq Yes he fuelled it, he was asked the question and he could, and should've answered it by saying it was a fair stumping, which it was, instead he chose to try and have us believe that he would've done something different - yeah, of course he would we've all seen examples of his sportsmanship.
The disallowal of Starc's catch the day before was an absolute travesty of justice as far as I'm concerned. The defence offered was "rules are rules, and we must abide by the rules".
Well, guess what. Bairstow's dismissal was in the rules. If disallowing Starc's catch was fair, then so was this. You can't have it both ways.
You are a legend for inventing the word Disallowal🎉
Quite so. Great word
Not only was Bairstows dismissal within the rules it's actually pretty normal, except at the elite level where batsmen normally aren't so dumb as to wander out of their creases while the ball is live.
Boycott is a disgrace the way he is carrying on.
England wil always whinge when something doesn't go their way, cos they are perennial losers.
@@ronaldosleftshoe oi, hang on. My phone's spell check facility reckons it's a real word.
What more could I possibly need?
