The stumping of England wicket-keeper Jonny Bairstow during the Lord's Test sparked a massive controversy. In obnoxious scenes, the Australian players were verbally abused and even pushed by some Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) members inside the Lord's Long Room. Tempers flared following Bairstow's controversial dismissal as the players returned to the dressing room for lunch. Cricket Australia has requested an investigation into this matter.
