WATCH: Victoria Police Takes A Hilarious Dig At England Fans Crying Over Jonny Bairstow Run-Out: The Ashes series is renowned for its high-intensity cricket and dramatic finishes, with the second Test match at Lord’s fitting the bill perfectly. A captivating Day 5 finish saw the match teetering on the edge, as it drew to a nail-biting conclusion on Sunday. The match was as much a testament to the mettle of Ben Stokes and Australia’s composure as it was a platform for controversy.

Of all the moments that unfolded on the last day, one incident has sparked intense discussion. The stumping of Jonny Bairstow by Australian wicketkeeper Alex Carey marked a pivotal turn in the match. With England’s last recognized batter dismissed, the onus fell on Ben Stokes, forcing him to take risks while batting with the tailenders. This dismissal put Australia on the brink of victory, amplifying the pressure on Stokes and the rest of the batting lineup.

The method of Bairstow’s dismissal, however, has caused a furore among English fans and cricket pundits. The ball was thrown at the stumps by Carey after Bairstow had presumed the over had ended. While it was an unconventional move, it was completely within the rules of the game. By exploiting Bairstow’s momentary lapse in concentration, Carey secured a crucial wicket, swinging the game in Australia’s favor.

The incident sparked reactions beyond the cricketing realm, with Victoria Police taking a humorous dig at the controversy. Using this incident as a cheeky opportunity to promote road safety, they thanked Bairstow for highlighting the importance of not crossing the line prematurely. Their tweet read, “We’d like to thank Jonny Bairstow for reminding everyone about the dangers of stepping over the crease before you’re given the green light.”

They further attached a link to their road safety tips and teased, “then tag a grumpy Englishman (we’ll go first @metpoliceuk)”. Their playful jab at the situation added a humorous twist to the controversy, while also echoing the sentiment of many Australian fans.
