for the sport.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on Channel Seven&#8217;s <span>Sunrise<\/span> on Thursday, the 30-year-old reiterated the on-field decision from the umpire was correct &#8211; but admitted he was shocked by the behaviour of irate MCC members at the home of cricket.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It certainly was a fair old tantrum,&#8217; Cummins told co-hosts Matt Shirvington and Natalie Barr.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I haven&#8217;t experienced anything like that before&#8230;. but I will say across my career, I&#8217;ve seen that type of dismissal at least 20 times &#8230; and it is always out.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Davey [Warner] and Ussie [Khawaja] went back at a few of the members following some comments, it was getting pretty heated.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/08\/24\/02\/74664665-12438907-image-a-31_1692842177237.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Pat Cummins has revealed why the crowd abuse that followed the infamous stumping of Jonny Bairstow at Lord&#8217;s was a &#8216;great thing&#8217;

claims from angry members at Lord&#8217;s during the second Test of the Ashes series (pictured middle, Usman Khawaja)<\/p>\n<p>When asked if he responded to the abuse personally, Cummins joked he &#8216;wasn&#8217;t quick-witted enough&#8217; to do so.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I got the gossip from the other guys, then we all took a deep breath and looked to stay composed,&#8217; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We had a break, and then re-set.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Cummins disagreed with the suggestion that Alex Carey&#8217;s stumping of Bairstow had &#8216;changed the game&#8217;, instead pointing out the massive interest in the series across five pulsating Test matches.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I think the great thing was how many people were speaking about cricket &#8230; it was the middle of winter [in Australia] and cricket was the main sport for a couple of months,&#8217; the paceman said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;So personally, I loved how much people were focusing on Test cricket and loving the contest each day.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;And also the old [sporting] rivalry between us and them&#8230;.every Ashes series seems to drop something.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/08\/24\/02\/74664647-12438907-image-m-33_1692842239723.jpg\" height=\"733\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Bairstow&#8217;s dismissal from Alex Carey at Lord&#8217;s was controversial &#8211; but within the laws of the game<\/p>\n<p>Cummins then added it was essentially job done in England, despite the drawn series.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Our aim was to retain the Ashes which we did, but even now I look back and some moments which if they went our way&#8230;\u00a0 could have seen a series win as opposed to a draw,&#8217; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We also retained the urn over there in 2019, so I am very proud of what we have achieved&#8230;.\u00a0 winning away from home is tough.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Cummins also confirmed he fractured his wrist in the fifth Test at The Oval, but is in no danger of missing the summer on home soil.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/cricket\/article-12438907\/Pat-Cummins-abuse-Lords-Ashes-stumping-Bairstow-scandal-great-thing.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pat Cummins explains why infamous abuse of Aussie cricketers at Lord&#8217;s after Ashes stumping scandal was a &#8216;great thing&#8217;
