@StrugglingJ @lmorenasjones @adelaidesportss @piersmorgan The spirit of cricket is also part of the rules of cricket though… and the major responsibility for upholding it rests with the captains. “… it should be played not only according to the Laws, but also the Spirit of Cricket”

@lmorenasjones @adelaidesportss @piersmorgan Sounds like you’re making assumptions that you have no idea about. They wrote the rules and the rules were followed.

Seem to remember this was also ‘in the rules.’

@Mistress76uk @bbctms The “Spirit of Cricket” is part of the laws of cricket… “the major responsibility for ensuring fair play rests with the captains”

@bbctms Why have a law in cricket and then say “it’s against the spirit of the game”? What utter nonsense! If people feel the cricketing laws need changing, then campaign for it. 😋😋😋😋

“Would I want to potentially win a game with something like that happening? No.” “I thought it was fair. You see Jonny [Bairstow] do it all the time.” A difference of opinions from the two captains. #Ashes #BBCCricket

@blakeseacrestau @thefulltoss @AdmiralDuncan You do realise the “Spirit of Cricket” is part of the laws? “The major responsibility for ensuring fair play rests with the captains”.

@thefulltoss @AdmiralDuncan Ball was live, 2 cultures with 2 different ways of playing. It's why universal laws of cricket are written. Australian local cricket this is out every day. Follow the rules. Simple as that. Except it.

Bairstow was out. Obviously. And probably a bit daft. But what a shame that a good game will remembered for what I will describe as ‘opportunism’. I wouldn’t want England to win like that. Carey knew Bairstow wasn’t taking a run. It’s not in the right spirit. Sad. #ashes

@easyJet you have just cancelled my flight to Geneva with everyone at the gate! What our my options?
