England coach Brendon McCullum says his side could skip post-series beers with Australia due to their fury over the Jonny Bairstow stumping — but footage has surfaced of Bairstow trying the exact same tactic.
But England was left stunned when Bairstow walked out of his crease after ducking a Cameron Green ball, only for Alex Carey to underarm the ball at the wicket and have him stumped.
"I am not disputing the fact it is out because it is out. Would I want to win a game in that manner? The answer for me is no." "You see Jonny do it all the time, he did it day one to [David] Warner, he did it in 2019 to Steve [Smith], it's a really common thing for keepers to do," Cummins said.
