The Long Room Argument at Lord's will go down in history as one of the most disappointing incidents in cricket. The story, which started because of the controversial dismissal of Jonny Bairstow by Australia wicketkeeper Alex Carey during the second Ashes Test, had an even bitterer ending after the Marylebone Cricket Club members, who were present in the long room, hurled abuses towards the Australian players while they were heading to the dressing room for Lunch. Things got more ugly when Australia opener Usman Khawaja claimed that he was racially abused by the members of the MCC.
According to the news agency, a detailed report from the Australian security manager will be taken into consideration along with the testimonies of all the other eyewitnesses.
"Identify and kick them out. There are lots of members who would never do that, and lots waiting in the wings to take their spots if they won't appreciate them."
The member further added that, "It's literally written in the rules that you can't do that. Don't abuse players, and in particular, don't pick out the guy who, of all the Aussie team members, seems the nicest one and hasn't done anything ever to upset anyone."
