The Ashes has gained heat after the controversial dismissal of England wicketkeeper batter Jonny Bairstow, who was wandering out of his crease when Alex Carey stumped him out.
Australian wicketkeeper Alex Carey was quick on his feet to run his England counterpart Jonny Bairstow out with a direct hit when he wandered off from the crease with the ball still being in play.
Australian wicket-keeper Alex Carey was alert enough to notice the pattern as Jonny Bairstow immediately left the crease and wandered off as soon as the over got completed without checking with the umpires or the keeper if the ball was in play or not.
Jonny Bairstow's controversial dismissal took the sheen off Ben Stokes and Co's spirited fightback on Day 5 of the second Ashes Test at Lord's as Australia won the contest by 43 runs and took a lead of 2-0.
