News of the controversial dismissal of the Baristow is not dying soon with Fans, former cricketers, Umpires and even the Prime Minister of the Australia and UK talking about it and mocking each other for it. India spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has taken a dip on it and mocked Bairstow for it saying “Spirit of Cricket”
Ashwin on his Youtube channel:
“Whenever there is a run-out in non-striker’s end or Carey-Bairstow incident, there is a new name that has arrived ‘Spirit of cricket’ – but you don’t feel for (Alex) Carey who is 20 meters away from stumps, to hit the stumps by making the plan and you say Spirit of cricket, I don’t get it,”.
“A debate regarding that Bairstow dismissal is that since it was the last ball of the over, it seems he left that delivery and came to the non-striker end to have a chat. Take a look at the replay again. Alex Carey didn’t wait for a second to hit the stumps. He knew Bairstow will leave the crease and that’s why he threw at the stumps immediately. Bairstow didn’t take a single look behind and started leaving his crease,”. he added
