Ashes: Stokes, Labuschagne Engage In Fiery Exchange On Day 2 Of SCG Test
SCG Test: England captain Ben Stokes and Australian batter Marnus Labuschagne were involved in a heated exchange during the third session on Day 2 of the fifth Ashes Test, leading to a fiery moment in the middle of the crease, with the England skipper firing off some explosive words at Labuschagne.
Travis Head hit successive boundaries off the England captain to end the 29th over, and tensions rose afterwards. It looked as if Labuschagne had infuriated Stokes after the Aussie batter appeared to back away from his crease during Stokes' run-up.
As Stokes passed the Australian players, he exchanged words with Labuschagne and gestured towards him, escalating the confrontation. Stokes then turned and approached the Aussie, putting his arm around his shoulders in a seemingly harsh manner. They exchanged words before the umpire intervened, after which they parted ways.
