Watch: Justin Langer shares the famous 'rubbish bin' story from Australia's 2019 Ashes defeat

Former Australia opener and coach, who is the current head coach of the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL), enthralled a young crowd by telling the Ashes 2019 story around the 'rubbish bin', which is part of the 'The Test' web series.

In a video shared by LSG on microblogging website 'X', Langer could be seen narrating the story and how it became one of the most talked about part of the web series.

Langer, who was the team's head coach, kicked the rubbish bin following Australia's agonizing one-wicket defeat against England, but what he did after that moment of anger drew a round of applause from the youngsters listening to the story.

It was the third Test in Headingley during the 2019 Ashes, which England famously won by just one wicket as Ben Stokes went on to score an unbeaten 135 not out.

LSG are currently in Mumbai for their final match of this IPL season against hosts Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium on Friday.

While MI are already out of the race to playoffs, LSG's hopes hang by a third and are only mathematically alive.
