Ashes 2023: Come In To Support England, Doesn't Need To Go Beyond That: Root Appeals For Calm Ahead Of Headingley Test

The Ashes: Former England skipper Joe Root has appealed to the crowd at his home ground of Headingley, urging them to remain calm amidst mounting concerns regarding a potential negative reaction following the contentious stumping of his teammate Jonny Bairstow at Lord's.

Bairstow, under the assumption that the ball had been declared dead and the over had ended, unintentionally vacated his crease as wicketkeeper Alex Carey launched a throw towards the stumps, resulting in his dismissal on the final day of the second test, which Australia won by 43 runs to go 2-0 up in the five-match series.
