* Bairstow out in a strange way:
Let us tell you that the incident of Bairstow's wicket is in the 52nd over of England's innings. Cameron Green of Australia was on the bowling at that time, he bowled a bouncer ball on which Bairstow ducked and the ball went straight into the gloves of wicketkeeper Alex Carey. At this time, as soon as the ball came in Kerry's gloves, Bairstow considered him dead and came out of the crease. After this, Alex Carey stumped Bairstow as soon as he did this and with this, the Australian team started celebrating while the England team could not understand what happened. And thus the matter reached the Third Empire but the result did not change even there and Bairstow had to return to the pavilion. Just then what was to happen after this a barrage of questions began to arise questions about Australia's sportsmanship.
* Ashwin ended all the controversy:
We all know very well that everyone has their own point of view, Indian off-spinner Ashwin has also jumped into this matter and the matter seems to be digested a bit by what he has said. Please tell that Ashwin Kumar has tweeted in which he is seen with Alex Carey. According to Ashwin Kumar, what happened at Lord's was not sudden but must have been a part of Australia's well-thought-out strategy.
After this, Ashwin further said that both Australia's side and the team must have studied this thing well Bairstow is repeatedly moving forward after going behind the ball. Without realizing this, no keeper would hit the stumps from as far away as Carey did. Here we should praise Alex Carey for his understanding of the game and not put him in the dock for his sportsmanship.

* Like Ashwin, Aakash Chopra also supported Alex Carey:
Let us tell you that in this matter, like Ashwin, Akash Chopra has also stood in support of Alex Carey in the matter of Bairstow's dismissal in a strange way. Regarding this matter, Akash Chopra has said that whatever will happen under the rules of the game. How can it be against the spirit of the game?
