Good afternoon. It’s been all about the Ashes today, with Australia waking up this morning to English hysteria caused by the controversial stumping of Jonny Bairstow.
Video of ugly scenes in Lord’s Long Room circulated on social media, appearing to show Australian cricketers being booed and heckled. The touring team alleges several players were “verbally abused” and “physically contacted”. Australian commentators and cricket fans were quick to point out England’s hypocrisy – read what they said and watch commentary from the two captains.
