Yes he was out. Nobody is saying he wasn't. The Australians should have withdrawn the appeal though.
No fucking way.
This is why people say Australia are bad sports. Well, this and the cheating.
You can't apply the laws when it suits you.
Ok but you can choose not to appeal if it would be unsportsman-like to. Anyway, one more to go - hopefully will get to bed soon.
"unsportsmanlike" is the biggest load of crap. The game has rules, stick to the rules or get out. Simple.
Starc's catch wasn't a catch because he did something stupid. Bairstow was out because he did something stupid.
Can't go by the wording of the rules for one case and not the other. Both teams had an unfortunate technicality this match, seems even and fair in the end.
You were very happy to deny Starc a catch yesterday, oh how the turns have tabled.
