This incident happened quite recently during the 2019 Ashes series in England. It was the fifth Test of the series and England was looking square the series after being 2-1 behind. Steve Smith had already accumulated loads of runs during the series and was looking strong for another match-winning knock.

As far as the incident is concerned, the Aussie batsman set off for a quick single and didn’t notice the ball coming from behind. Bairstow realised that the fielder will throw the ball directly to the bowler at the non-striker’s end. But he decided to stand to the stumps and make it look like he was going to collect the ball dislodge the stumps.

Smith didn’t have any option and tried to save himself from a certain run-out. As expected he dived only to be in vain and the ball never reached Bairstow. The two players shared a laugh after this incident.
