  • Piers Morgan Uncensored is joined by Australian cricket writer and journalist Peter Lalor to react and discuss the controversial stumping of Jonny Bairstow which led to Australia winning the Ashes over England.
    Piers believes Australian captain Pat Cummins is the person at fault as he believes he should have spoken with the umpire to reverse the decision. Peter however believes that Australia are owed an apology by English cricket fans over the way the team has been treated online and more so at Lord's by MCC members who hurled insults at the team as they walked in.

      Considering the massive Australian over-reaction to the Starc non-catch the day before (crowding the umpires, blaming Duckett for not walking) I highly doubt that your compatriots would feel the same way! Also, Australians were wandering out of their crease throughout both of their innings without positive confirmation the ball was dead, which I guess just means that they all must be negligent also, or was Bairstow only negligent because he did it against Australia, a team known to be unsporting?

I even agree about England apologising, in my view because we've prioritized Bazball over The Ashes, and show respect for the folks who have travelled so far for the contest. We should thank Australia for a timely slap around the face whilst we have a chance to do something about getting a win on the board in Leeds. Sorry to hear about Steve Smith's mum.

      Australian fan and appreciate your level-headedness. Personally, I don't like these gotcha kinds of wickets - Mankads and sneaky keeper underarms. I'd rather see batsmen dismissed by high quality bowling or fielding. But clearly these dismissals are within the law and they are occasionally needed as as a reminder to batsmen that (a) the creases are there for a reason, and (b) they don't determine whether the ball is live or dead. I can guarantee Bairstow will never take that for granted and get out that way again, and it'll be a wake-up call for a few others too. As for the 'spirit of cricket', it's outlined in the preamble to the Laws of Cricket and says nothing about captains being so generous as to hand dozy opposition batsmen a second chance.

      The thing I find most sickening is the 'lost opportunity' and 'haven't moved past Sandpapergate' drivel, which Piers Morgan pontificated at the time. Just because Australia 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 Australia having to then play on some kind handicap system for 5 years or eternity thereafter.

    I am Englishman, was a wickie for 27 years, and in every form of cricket I played, catching a batsman walking out out of his crease was a 'given' part of the role, actively coached, and I did it about a dozen times. Not one batsman complained it was unsportsman-like conduct, no opposition player ever pulled me to one side about it, and every batsman I caught out was gutted they were mugged for not paying attention. The ball was still live, the over was still live, and the wicketkeeper was aware enough to be proactive and switched on to seize the opportunity. If the ball had missed and gone for 4 overthrows none of you idiots would be whining!? Piers needs to shut-up!!

      Very true. But the answer to this conundrum is that the umpires should be empowered (and educated) to over-rule the laws of cricket on certain rare occasions to 'protect the integrity of the sport'. As an Aussie, I believe Bairstow should have been given a reprieve by the umpires. It's the umpires who have failed not Cummins or Carey who did the right thing. Gutless umpiring has caused this controversy.

I was thinking the exact same way, the umpires have all the angles and all the cameras so it's all up to them.. then I realized that giving him a reprieve here will set a precedent where umpires are now having to decide if a batsmen is being careless or made a mistake.. the rules are the way they are so umpires don't have to make these decisions.. therefore I revert back to it being entirely bairstow's fault and if england want to blame anyone it should be him. After all he's a keeper and all keepers know the rules regarding the crease and gameplay etc.. especially considering he made a similar play in the previous innings and he's got a history of using the same rules to his advantage and then quoting 'its I'm the rules and it's part of the game'..

    What i've noticed about Piers is, when he is confident that he is absolutely right, he lets his guest speak without interrupting. As soon as the guest starts building a valid argument, he just jumps in and interrupts them every three seconds. Pathetic, really. It's easy to be a bully when you are in command of the mute button.
    The spirit of the game is to applaud your opponent, even when you'd want to tear his guts out and feed them to the dogs. It is in the spirit of the game to accept the umpires' decision, even when you are 100% certain that they are wrong. Like the day before, re Starc's (non) catch... It is not in the spirit of the game to announce that you won't be having a beer with your opponent any time soon. As if they'd be crying to miss that opportunity (it's most likely they'd be saying DILLIGAF.)

      I completely agree with that.
      That said, if you watch the video carefully, the only valid excuse for Bairstow's failure to look back, is the fact that he looked towards the bowler's end, where the umpire definitely began to react as though the over has ended. However, the umpire hadn't yet called 'over.'
      From the umpire's initial movement (where he started to look down), I don't think he had yet spotted that Carey had not stopped playing. A full view of Carey would be blocked by Bairstow, and/or (like Bairstow) the umpire made a wrong assumption, because he wasn't paying sufficient attention.

It hadn’t been a problem before that, though, because before that nobody would have attempted a stumping, however Australia were enraged up by the Starc decision the day before! The most careless thing Bairstow did was thinking he could be complacent around the angered Australians!

      I previously pointed out on another thread that amongst international players it seems to have become an unspoken 'gentlemen's' agreement that, when the keeper is standing back to pace and the ball is cleanly pouched, if the batter is safe in his crease, both sides have invariably stopped playing and umpires have taken the same approach. Perhaps the laws of cricket will now be modified to deem the ball as automatically dead in these particular circumstances?
      Currently in these particular circumstances in test matches, during overs (and even at the end of overs) when batsmen leave their crease for a chat or to do a bit of gardening, it's often unclear whether the ball is dead or still in play.

    Not once has Piers Morgan and the show's producers shown the angle from behind where both wicketkeeper and batsman are visible. If one sees that, it is clear as daylight, that Carey threw the ball much before Bairstow stepped out. Yes, he had been routinely stepping out immediately after the ball was bowled which the Aussies noticed. However, on that occasion, Carey did not see him step out. He just threw the ball, almost predicting that he may step out and he foolishly did the same. If the camera behind the keeper is shown, all the arguments die instantly. As for the Captain to withdraw the appeal, I think soon the English will ask to withdraw clean bowled while shouldering arms appeals because the batsman misjudged the ball. If you doze off you get out. This is TEST cricket for goodness sake.

    Linking this to sand paper gate is virtually an admission that they have no case in regard to the current situation and Morgan is desperate..Bairstow walked out of his crease after the ball was thrown by Carey immediately after being pouched by him and was still in the air not before Bairstow lumbered up the pitch. That makes it open and shut.I have never heard of '' marking'' your crease before. That is a new one on me and comes late in the media onslaught after Australia has marked its crease on Bairstow and moved on.. It that has not been mentioned before nor have I ever heard it ever mentioned by any of the expert test cricket commentators ever. What is Bairstow? A rhinoceros. Who was supposed to see this crease marking anyway and interpret it when mixed in with all Bairstow's fidgeting around in his pissing patch? Is there a rule of the game giving it force as to stumpings and run outs if it is of such significance or perhaps its the ritual that summons up the ''spirit'' of the game.? Carey was keeping to a quick, Green, and was well back from the stumps at a slightly lower elevation and his vision of the crease is obscured by the wicket and the rhinoceros Bairstow. I just hope next time Bairstow does not adopt the full procedure of how rhinos mark their territory. Did Carey see this marking of the crease or even did Pat Cummings or is this whole late assertion of ''crease marking'' something that Piers Morgan pulled out of his ass when cornered and is now ''marking his crease''. I played competition cricket as a youngster and earlier on as a wicketkeeper that has stumped batters and I never heard of it.This guy Piers Morgan is a self promoter, not too bright and his mental associations are crude and unsophisticated and at the best of times ''omelettes''.
    Morgan has this literally in your face annoying inflated screen presence to conceal that there is not that much behind his big head that is visually pushed down your throat. I doubt his camera people would last long if they switched frame from his annoying over blown close ups. Morgan' s big protruding head recently claimed that the Russian invasion of Ukraine was an illegal war of aggression just like the second Gulf war that he led the Daily Mail charge on this ( presumably with his head like a rhino but without a brain) when he clearly has no legal qualifications. The Second Gulf War is not an illegal war of aggression by either the U.S.A.or the U.K. as neither were attempting to annex Iraq or alter international law boundaries. The First Gulf war was, however, by Hussein who illegally annexed Kuwait and this is the true legal analogy with the war against Ukraine. Morgan is an opinionated big mouth that does not do any research into what he says especially as to idiotic legal statements like that which echo lefty beat ups about the Second Gulf war. Morgan actually trivialized the Russian invasion of Ukraine while he was criticising it in a head butting competition with one of the dime-a-dozen Russian liars conducting the Kremlin's language war that he decided to air as his '' head on lying mouth'' show.
    Why are there always large close ups of his face and head taking up all the screen where guests are reduced and distant? Is he just ''marking his crease'' with his noggin while he talks out of his arse? Do him and Bairstow belong to the same secret Rhino club and you have to drag your feet along the ground to get into the clubhouse hidden away in the confines of the MCC? I wonder if it admits women and ethnic minorities if they know the '' crease mark'' dance as I will now point out?
    This Bairstow sore loser crap is just a tabloid beat up where the real story is the RACISM shown in the MCC Long Room to Khwaja who was not an actor in Bairstow's lawful dismissal that also conforms to the spirit of the game. The English cricket (critic) team have a systemic weakness and that is their rhino tail never wags but their mouth does instead and there is no runs in that. 6 wickets out of 10 is virtually the same as all out to the inventors of the game that they lose more often than not with disguised resentment to the upstart down under colonials. Not just in this team but in prior teams the English bowlers simply regard batting as an annoying delay before they get to bowl at teams that use up to10 wickets to get runs and yet they wonder why they lose.How do they expect to beat a team that will fight right down to the last of 10 wickets when England virtually pull up stumps when their recognised bats are out. Do they mark their crease at 6 wickets? It is relevant here because Bairstow being lawfully dismissed meant unless Stokes had to do it all on his own as he did once before raising British hopes. However, Stokes now had to do it with half-hearted partners or the match would be lost, as it was dashing those raised hopes and causing their sore loser chorus that Bairstow was cheated out by those unbelievers who remained unfazed by the '' spirit'' let loose by Bairstow's rhino impersonation, perhaps adopted from Ionesco's play of the same name in a Peter Brook revival. Aussie do not know all that much about French theatre. No one in English cricket expects the bowlers to save the day with the bat. Why not? That would not be English cricket and that is why losing by over 40 runs means this test was not close at all because 40 runs is beyond the horizon of the English tail and out of their ''unmarked'' crease. In the 1st test Australian tailenders chased down the English total with tail end wickets to spare, batting last on a water logged outfield after losing the toss and instead English cricket whined about their own 8 wicket '' Bazball'' declaration when Root had run out of real partners like Stokes because Bairstow's ''marked crease'' went unnoticed by the colonial trespassers. Stay on message and the message on this is the RACISM that surfaced in the Long Room against Khwaja who not coincidentally has been consistently the biggest thorn in the side in outgunning the English 6 wicket batting team by frustrating its no bat bowling team. The MCC dropped their guard and showed their true colors about this Bairstow beat up when they quickly shifted their focus to Khwaja who was unconnected to the Bairstow incident and letting their mask slip unless of course Khwaja was the only player aware of rhino Bairstow '' marking his crease''.? Is Bairstow a white or a black rhino? We all know the answer to that one, don,t we?. Be careful this Australian side has no systemic weaknesses and if you make them angry then England may get annihilated after '' marking their crease'' at 6 wickets.

    Piers wants to introduce Woke Cricket. It starts with a few rule changes. it is now the batsman that tells the umpire when a ball is dead, and when the over is finished. Also, scratching the ground with your spriggs becomes the universal signal that you now cannot be dismissed. Another new rule is to let all batsmen get offered a second chance in case they feel poorly or offended about anything.

    the ball was live when Bairstow got stumped, it isn't the Australians' responsibility to remind an experienced player to keep his bat grounded until the ball is deemed dead at the end of the over by the bowler's end umpire, that is the first thing we are taught when we pick up a cricket bat for the first time. Bairstow never looked back to Carey to get the all the clear, he just walked away from the crease in a daze.
    The non-existent controversy brought up by a bunch of sore losers isn't going to change the fact that Bairstow made a beginner's mistake, even though he is an experienced player, and he is also a wicket-keeper, he should have known better than that. He simply had a significant lapse in concentration, which denied him of having any amount of situational awareness.
    I find it very amusing that the people complaining about it the most, are the ones who wrote the laws of the game, the very same laws that rightly denied Starc of a catch when he grounded the ball, and the very same laws that got Bairstow out, in short, the Australians did nothing wrong, and the only in the wrong, is Bairstow himself.

My thoughts are that Carey would not have thrown down that wicket if the Brits had not asked for a review of the Starc catch. In this game, that's where the spirit of the game was ignored. To my mind Alex Carey's run out of Johnny Bairstow was very much in the spirit of sport in general, as in, "If you go all out to win, disregarding sporting etiquette, I will too." There's nothing unfair about that. And yes, the catching rule needs to be looked at. "Clear control in the umpire's eyes" is a phrase that pops to mind.

    8. "Did England retire Ben Duckett when they disagreed with the Starc catch decision as per the Laws and umpires’ decision?
