Onto the next test and hopefully we can seal the series win and I don't doubt that it will be another good test.

Why are so many aussies whingeing about Starc being caugh cheating then?

It seems they want the rules to apply to the stumping but not the catch. Hypocrisy?

“The real breach of the spirit of cricket was in the Long Room at Lords, that was unforgivable and I hope it will not happen again,” he said, in a discussion with former Australian prime minister John Howard.

“No-one likes a whinger or a sore loser and the fact is England lost because of their inability to bat in the first innings, not Jonny Bairstow having a brain fade, Australia was right to report it hard,” the Surrey resident said.
“The whingeing and booing is all part of the Ashes, it’s meant to be competitive. If we want to dish it out, we’ve got to be able to take it,” she said.

Exeter University student Toby Jennings, 20, said he agreed England was “whingeing too much.”

“The real breach of the spirit of cricket was in the Long Room at Lords, that was unforgivable and I hope it will not happen again,” he said, in a discussion with former Australian prime minister John Howard.

While down on the loss, cricket fanatic Ella Toney, said Australia had every right to rub it in.

Abuse? What was said that made it abuse. This is the clearest example of aussie whingeing known.

Footage has captured the moment the Australian cricketers were verbally abused by several Marylebone Cricket Club members during their victory in the Lord's Ashes Test.

The Australian cricketers were walking through the famous Lord's Pavilion on day five of the second Test when members viciously abused them on their way to the change rooms.
"It is alleged players and staff from the Australian team were verbally abused, with some being physically contacted, as they made their way to lunch through the member's area," the statement read.

The MCC then identified three members involved in the incident and apologised to the Australian players for the behaviour.

"They will not be permitted back to Lord’s whilst the investigation takes place and were informed of this by MCC Chief Executive, Guy Lavender, this evening," a statement read

There was also many comparisons to an earlier incident in the match which was marred with controversy.

The Australians had a wicket chalked out after the umpires deemed a Mitchell Starc catch was not legal because he had touched the ground with the ball.

Starc caught the ball near the boundary well above the ground with two hands before sliding on his knees and in the process put the ball on the ground to stop his slide.

The umpires gave the catch out but the decision was overturned upon review as it was deemed the ground was used to catch the ball.

Many fans were quick to point out that the English had been crying out for the letter of the law in that instance but wanted to see the spirit of cricket take over in their benefit.

"The laughable hypocrisy of English fans using slang words & insults for Australia while lecturing about the 'spirit' & manners of the gentleman's game!" Reuters journalist Kanishka Raj Singh tweeted.

"They wanted to follow the cricket law literally yesterday in Starc's catch. Now they don't want to follow it for Bairstow."
