Manchester: The player most experienced at captaincy in Saturday's controversial one-dayer at Lord's, George Bailey, says England's Eoin Morgan should recall every batsman who suffered what he considered a rough umpiring decision at the crease based on his declaration he would have overturned the appeal that saw his teammate Ben Stokes given out for obstructing the field.

Bailey, who has extensive experience at the helm of Tasmania and Australia's Twenty20 team and led the one-day team for much of the past summer, backed the decision of new captain Steve Smith for endorsing wicketkeeper Matthew Wade's appeal. It came after Stokes thrust his hand in the way of a throw from bowler Mitch Starc, who had collected in his follow-through, that could have run him out.

"'Wadey' had a good view of it behind the stumps. He said straight away that he thought the ball was missing 'Stokesy' and it was going to hit the stumps, so he appealed and we went upstairs and the umpire gave it out," Smith said, confirming he had not contemplated withdrawing the appeal. "The way I saw it was he was out of his ground and he wilfully put his hand out, which is [against] the rule I've been told, and he got given out by the umpire."

Stokes became just the seventh player in international cricket history to be given out in that fashion. It triggered widespread fervent boos from a crowd typically renowned for its restrained appreciation of cricket.

Morgan was insistent after the match Stokes should not have been given out under law 37, arguing his reaction in lifting his hand as he tried to get back to his crease "wasn't deliberate" and was instead done to "protect himself".
