Alex Carey is currently busy playing in the ongoing third Ashes 2023 Test in Leeds. But, during this clash, Carey got accused of cheating as he is yet to pay £30 for a haircut to the UK barber, Adam. He is the barber of Doc Barnet’s Barber Shop in Leeds. Now, the barber has come up with a deadline for the Australia wicketkeeper.

He said: “I’m still waiting. hey all came in just before we shut. We cut their hair and had a great laugh. But we don’t accept cards and Alex said he had no cash on him. Well, there’s a Tesco cash machine literally round the corner he could have run to. He could have nipped back to their hotel and been no more than five minutes but instead he said he would transfer it. Maybe he forgot. I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt but if it’s not paid by Monday, I won’t be happy.”

Alex Carey has hit one fifty so far in this ongoing series 

After such a deadline, fans shared their views on social media. Carey visited that store on the eve of the first Test along with teammates Marnus Labuschagne, David Warner, and Usman Khawaja. However, apart from Carey, all of them also posed for photos. The Australia wicketkeeper also got involved in a controversial dismissal in the second Test when he dismissed Jonny Bairstow in a cheeky way. Regarding that, fans were left shocked and divided into two halves.

The England pacer, Stuart Broad hit out at Carey while coming out to bat in that match. After Bairstow’s dismissal, the crowd chanted ‘Cheater, Cheater’ and regarding that, Broad said: “That’s all you’ll ever be remembered for. That.” Speaking about Carey, he is currently having a moderate Ashes series. In the first four innings, he scored 129 runs along with 15 dismissals. In the first inning of this ongoing match, Carey failed to score big again as he got out on just eight runs.
