While Bairstow’s dismissal in the 2nd Ashes Test has still kept social media buzzing, legendary umpire Simon Taufel <\/a>has shared his thoughts on the subject.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The second Ashes Test at Lord’s, which Australia won by 43 runs to go 2-0 up in the five-match series, witnessed a few moments, which overshadowed the intense competition the two sides produced. Instead, there was a lot of heated discussion over the “spirit of cricket” on social media, with Jonny Bairstow’s dismissal <\/strong><\/a>in the second innings being the most popular subject.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Although Alex Carey, the Australia wicketkeeper<\/strong>, correctly dismissed Bairstow for 10, the England team believed it lacked sportsmanship. Ben Stokes of England remarked that he would not have wanted to win a Test match in such a way as captain before adding that he would have dropped the run-out plea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
