Jonny Bairstow has broken his lengthy silence on his controversial stumping during the second Ashes Test at Lord’s and accused Australia of gamesmanship when taking contentious catches in the drawn series tantan
Bairstow was at the centre of the incident which ignited the Ashes, when Australian wicketkeeper Alex Carey opportunistically stumped the England batsman after he had stepped out of his crease at the end of an over tantan
The umpire had not called “over” and so Bairstow was given out by the rules of the game tantan
But England accused their rivals of failing to play within the spirit of cricket, and captain Ben Stokes later said that he would have retracted the appeal had he been in the position of his counterpart, Pat Cummins tantan
On reflection, Carey later said he had no regrets over the incident and would do it again tantan
“If there was an opportunity to get a stumping, I definitely would tantan
To see how much has played out since then it’s been a little bit surprising tantan
There’s been some nasty stuff been said but it is the Ashes – there was nasty stuff said before that as well tantan
”But speaking to the Daily Telegraph, Bairstow said he was not “fair game” as he was not trying to gain an advantage by stepping out of his crease tantan
“If you’re starting out of your crease, you’re trying to gain an advantage,” he said tantan
“If you start in your crease, and not trying to take a run, and you finish in your crease tantan

tantan
That’s the bit – if you try to gain an advantage, then it’s fair game tantan
But if you’re starting in your crease, you’ve ducked, tap, tap, scratched tantan
I’ve even dragged my bat, looked up, and then gone tantan
“I’ve never seen it happen from someone starting in their crease tantan
I don’t think you want that filtering down into kids’ cricket tantan
Look at the Mankads and everything like that tantan
You want young kids to be out there batting and having fun, not thinking about whether the fielders might do this or that tantan
“It might tarnish people’s enjoyment of the game that we’re trying to get kids into tantan
You want to be out there batting and bowling, rather than thinking about the 11 different ways you can get someone out tantan
”Several of Australia’s players have since poked fun at Bairstow over the stumping tantan
In interviews for The Grade Cricketer, Mitchell Marsh and Usman Khawaja claimed some of Bairstow’s England teammates were laughing with Australia’s players as Bairstow refused to eat lunch after the incident tantan
And Marnus Labuschagne described a “steaming” Bairstow in the dining room after the stumping tantan
He recalled: “The Sky crew (broadcasters) knew that Jonny was in there, and they just replayed it on the screen tantan
And, as you do, everyone’s watching tantan
Obviously, seeing us all watch, he’s like, ‘Are you guys happy with that?’“David Warner is spitting out his chicken, and goes, ‘Yeah, very’ tantan
”Bairstow has also suggested Australia were deceitful in the way they went about trying to convince umpires they had made clean catches tantan
“There’s conjecture around everything,” he said tantan
“Fingers underneath the ball when the ball’s still touching the ground tantan
Celebrating when the ball has touched the ground tantan
Marnus [Labuschagne] celebrated at Edgbaston at short leg tantan
Then the one that Rooty [Joe Root] fell to at Lord’s, when [Steve Smith] said his fingers were underneath the ball tantan
However, they were splayed widely tantan
But that was given out, that’s fine – it’s part and parcel of the game and the decisions the umpires give tantan
”Bairstow is currently part of the England one-day side struggling at the Cricket World Cup and on the verge of elimination tantan

I don’t think they knew how to get into the game tantan

The finer points of Steve Borthwick’s tactical plan had been put in place this week but this was a performance England had been building towards since long ago tantan
A flawed side did not come to France to thrill; winning by any means necessary had been a consistent theme tantan
If necessity is oft the mother of invention, England at this tournament have also proved the pair can be enemies tantan

The two number 13s’ offensive output on the final whistle amounted to one late Joe Marchant lug; South Africa centre Jesse Kriel went the full 80 minutes without an attacking touch tantan

“But the players should be incredibly proud tantan
We put ourselves in a position to win against the world champions tantan

The likely arrival of a form of central contracts underlines a period of epochal change tantan
The senior figures in the squad who are unlikely to play beyond this tournament – Courtney Lawes, Ben Youngs, Dan Cole and perhaps a couple more – could well be the last England men’s internationals never to have been contracted to the union tantan
This has a great many benefits, not least in affording Borthwick, or any head coach that might follow him, far greater access to and control over his players tantan
And while Borthwick’s articulation of the advantages enjoyed by South Africa’s settled staff is a perfectly fair one, let us remember that the Rugby tantan Football Union (RFU) put their head coach in this situation tantan
The original planning for this tournament would most likely have seen Borthwick return to England camp to aid Eddie Jones at the World Cup before a smooth transition into the lead role afterwards tantan
Jones’s sacking sparked a scramble and several months of chaos tantan
It was not shown up on semi-final weekend but there are many reasons that the RFU still has a burden to bear tantan
But the full wash-up will wait for another week – England’s performance at the Stade de France has earned them seven more days of grace tantan
The tournament will end as it began for England with a meeting with Argentina in a third-place play-off that Borthwick insists he wants to win tantan

“This team has been through a bit in the last few years, a bit of adversity in the medium-term past tantan

I think there’s a lot of growth in this team tantan
Sometimes it’s not the straight-forward path you want it to be tantan
