Sydney, Aug 24 (Ians) Australia’s Test skipper Pat Cummins believes that the after-effect of the stumping of England wicketkeeper-batter Jonny Bairstow effected by Alex Carey during the Lord’s Test in the 2023 Ashes series made him like the fact that a lot of people got involved with the sport.
On day five’s play in the second Ashes Test at Lord’s, Bairstow was on 10 in the 52nd over when he ducked under a bouncer from Cameron Green and inadvertently walked out of his crease.
Carey immediately directed an underarm throw after catching the delivery, and jumped in joy after firing his throw at the stumps. On-field umpires Ahsan Raza and Chris Gaffaney sent the decision upstairs, where TV umpire Marais Erasmus confirmed Bairstow’s dismissal.
The dismissal drew a furious reaction from the fans, who started to chant “same old Aussies, always cheating”, and booed the visitors for the rest of the day,...

Manchester, July 15 (Ians) Australia’s wicketkeeper-batter Alex Carey said he had no regrets over the controversial stumping of his England counterpart Jonny Bairstow in the second Ashes Test at Lord’s and expressed surprise over some nasty stuff being said about it since then.
Bairstow was batting on 10 and England were at 193/5 in the 52nd over when he ducked under a bouncer from Cameron Green and inadvertently walked out of his crease. On seeing that, Australia wicketkeeper Alex Carey immediately directed an underarm throw after catching the delivery, and jumped in joy after firing an accurate throw towards the stumps.
It led to chaos in the middle as Bairstow believed the ball was dead, with Australia immediately going for an appeal. On-field umpires Ahsan Raza and Chris Gaffaney sent the decision upstairs, where TV umpire Marais Erasmus confirmed Bairstow’s dismissal, as England eventually lost by 43 runs despite a heroic 155 from captain Ben Stokes.

New Delhi, June 21 (Ians) Australia and England have been fined 40 per cent of their match fee and penalised two Icc World Test Championship (Wtc) points each for maintaining slow over-rates during the first Ashes Test in Birmingham.
Andy Pycroft of the Icc Elite Panel of Match Referees imposed the sanctions after the teams were ruled to be two overs short of their targets after time allowances were taken into consideration, according to the Icc release.
“Captains Pat Cummins and Ben Stokes pled guilty to the offence and accepted the proposed sanctions, so there was no need for formal hearings.
On-field umpires Ahsan Raza and Marais Erasmus, third umpire Chris Gaffaney and fourth umpire Mike Burns levelled the charges,” it said.
The sanctions see Australia lost two Wtc points, leaving Cummins’ side with a total of 10 points after their first Test of the new cycle.

Karachi, Dec 21 (Ians) Fast bowler Hasan Ali earned a call-up to Pakistan’s Test squad to face New Zealand in a two-match series, starting from December 26. Apart from him, uncapped middle-order batter Kamran Ghulam has been included in the squad.
Pakistan Cricket Board (Pcb) said in an official statement that Kamran has replaced Azhar Ali, who announced his retirement last week, while Hasan has taken over from Mohammad Ali, who, like Faheem Ashraf, has been advised to participate in the ongoing Pakistan Cup in Karachi.
Hasan played last of his 21 Test matches for Pakistan against Sri Lanka at Galle in July this year but was dropped for the England series, which the Babar Azam-led side recently lost 3-0 at home. Ghulam, on the other hand, has played 44 first-class matches, amassing 3268 runs and averaging 47.36, including 10 centuries and 18 half-centuries.
