I’ve only heard second hand some of the comments but If any of it was said then Davy has gone up in my estimations of him
Comments by him or to him?

“I say, fair go old chap. It just won’t do to have old Barty, Wiggy and Brecky’s names sullied in this manner. A slight fracas is all it was. I knew an Usman once you know. He served me dinner and brandy in the sitting room at The Manor one evening I’m sure. Anyhow, tally ho!”

Copped the old sandpaper sledge but then overheard some of the stuff directed at Usman and then politely offered to adjust one of the patrons tie as it looked loose before being a kindly chap and asking him if he would like him to buy him a beer and have a friendly chat behind the pavilion 
- obviously I’ve cleaned it up

Surely someone made up those names! Not even the MCC could have ridiculous sounding names like that.

Could be a few delays going through Brit immigration control for Australian passport holders.
Don’t you know that they’re 6th cousins with the King?

First things first. Well done to Australia for going 2 nil up. They deserved to win the test, they were the better team throughout.
As for the run out. By the laws it was out, so I have no issue with the decision. However I don’t think it’s within the spirit of the game.
The series has been played in very good spirits so far, I don’t think it will be from here tbh

I’m fascinated by the spirit of the game call (not just of you here, but anyone else calling it). I get the mankad warning, but wouldn’t have a problem if someone was runout by mankad without a warning. Abit dodgy, but who cares, we are here to win.
But giving a warning in the case of Bairstow? really? what other dismissals should we warn about.? Where is the list? If the list is the laws of the game, as it should be, then we should move on. If not, what is the list?
