Bairstow lost that for England.

It's not the Aussies' fault that he's as thick as two short planks.

people will not like this truth bomb David.

Two absolutely absorbing matches

Makes T20 look a bit meh

Roll on Headingly … although England must address the tail. Brave as he was, Broad cannot bat at 8

Razzie or mo you reckon?

I take no interest in cricket tbh, but watching the replays of that it was obvious given the rules of the game that the ball was not dead and Bairstow marched down the wicket like a clown.

He should be held up for ridicule.

I guarantee if an England footballer had dropped an equivalent bollock he'd have been pilloried not lauded. There's a clear class bias going on here.

Defo, his immobility is his crime.

He's immobile?

Indeed he is, well overweight, as you pointed out re his thickness...

The thickness is in his head.

Pretty obvious you take no interest in cricket. It was totally out of order to run him out. Funnily it nearly won us the game. We would have lost by 150 before they riled us up.

Lack of knowledge Dave after the 6th ball the umpire if the ball goes through should shout 'Over ' it's the logical thing to do he has pegs in his pocket to count to six ....its a given ....

Anyone who watches or plays cricket would have expected the umpire to shout over there

Reminiscent of the 90's in part, that in any one innings there'd be a capitulation of course but one batter would stand up and simply be left stranded trying to carry the lot. So many opportunities missed.

Honestly laugh how they don't see it as the spirit of the game. Strauss sounds like a bad toff and tory.

bairstow lost us that match. Utter naivety from him there and excellent awareness from the wicket keeper!!
