ICC
The International Cricket Council changes and amends certain rules in cricket from time to time. Saying that, it has recently announced that if the bowler is out in Mankad mode, it will be taken as an official run out. This has been welcomed by many cricketers.
Ashwin
Similarly, Indian spinner Aswin has commented on this. In it, ‘Earlier, it was termed a Mankad. But it has been changed now to run out. They (MCC) have destigmatized the entire concept and have termed it run-out law. The bowler was earlier expected to give a warning when the batsman leaves the crease at the non-striker's end. Now they have announced that what the non-striker is doing is wrong and, therefore, bowlers can actually run them out if the non-striker tries to leave the crease before the ball is delivered by the bowler."
Mankad
“Bowlers used to feel bad about doing this, wondering how our team batsman would feel and what the cricketing world would think if we did it. Thinking about these consequences, they used to not run them out. "the extra step the non-striker is taking might end up destroying your entire career." "If the non-striker ends up on strike because of that extra step he is taking, he might smash a six, whereas the current striker might have gotten out. So, if you take a wicket, your career will advance, whereas if you are smashed for a six, your career may suffer," Ashwin said.
IPL
Jos Buttler, who played for the Rajasthan Royals during the last IPL match in 2019, was dismissed by Ashwin via Mankad. It caused great controversy at the time. Many criticized Ashwin harshly. But the cricketer explained that he was following the rules. Now, this rule has been changed to an official run out. Ashwin will be seen playing for the Rajasthan Royals squad in the upcoming edition of IPL. So it is to be noted that Jos Buttler and Ashwin are on the same team.
