Sir Geoffrey Boycott insists Australia are the original cry babies and owe England an apology

"They sent a telegram to the MCC because they said it's not cricket, it wasn't in the spirit of the game."Even after the series finished, they contacted the MCC and pressurised them to alter the rules and made sure there was no 'bodyline' bowled in 1938, or else they weren't coming.

"Bairstow was dozy. Daft as a brush, walking down the pitch. You wait for the umpire to say, 'over'. Or if it's in the middle of an over, you look to the keeper and get a signal. That's the norm."Jonny just wandered off thinking it was the end of the over. They did nothing wrong, they were delighted to get him out.

"He wasn't trying to get a run, it's different to the mankad. Bairstow was not trying to get an advantage, he wasn't trying to sneak a run, he's just going to talk to his mate.
