Rules on mankadding

Does anybody know the international rules for mankadding. This is where the bowler just before he bowls the ball, hits the stumps at the non strikers end, with the batsmen out of his crease.

Mankadding. Named after the Indian all-rounder Vinoo Mankad who pulled it off in Australia - and, seeing as he wasn't Aussie, was vilified for being unsporting, cheating, etc, etc.

Current rules dictate that it's fine so long as the bowler hasn't entered his delivery stride. By the letter of the law, no warnings are required any longer.

True, but I know in the triangular comp. (ODI) in Aust. They were not allowed to perform any Mankads during the series.

The rules make it near impossible for a bowler to mankad because as soon as his back foot lands, the non-striker is permitted to begin backing-up. So either the bowler has to do it mid air, or he has to just run in in a normal fashion without a delivery stride.

I got incorrectly adjudged to be mankadded in a 5th Grade Grand Final match where we needed 8 to win off 10 balls. The 69 year-old umpire had a panic attack, gave me out, then decided to look in the rule book, tap the shoulder of the captain and say "I think I've made a mistake".

A bit late for that you old b******.

Nothing ever changes. Try to steal a loaf and get caught, try to steal a run and get caught. Blooming Aussies.

We're top blokes though. It's just our larrikin streak coming through

On mancadding, my parent's friends mancadded me on the beach one time, when I was about 8 years old, and I chucked the biggest fit ever, and stormed off for two hours in tears. Got my backside belted when I got back too! I'm sure it's not the only mancadding incident to have caused a tantrum in social cricket circles. As a kid, It's just terrible for your innings to be so ruthlessly snuffed out, in a such an underhanded manner!

I know, I've been a victim of it many times in backyard and schoolyard cricket too.

haha. I had that too...he was in his stride...so i walked up. (out of my crease) he came down...didnt bowl the ball and got my stumps off.. he said your out 1st warning I said no im not you were in you stride.....he said learn the rules I said I do know the rules. your wrong.blablabla. I reckond he wouldnt do it again..but he did..umpire gave me out...he said its important for the future you know that out(the bowler)(in senior league this was ) and he said you need to know the rules..then I said I know the *beep* rules you idiot and i beeped on for a bit...then walked into changing room and closed the door REALLY loud....my skipper wasnt to happy with my swearing and the closing of the door although he said i was right. then at the end of there innings i was sitting in my chair. mocking about what a ********s the guys were(in myself not speaking it out ofcourse) then there bowler walked to me and said you need to know the rules you beep. then my skipper went mad and took him "down' on the ground and said the wonderous words of f*** off :P

I saw on tv Ewan Chatfield I think it was doing it before. It is a smart thing to do.

 

[open365]

It nearly happened to me in an U11s game.

the bowler ran up and i was quite a way outside my crease(our coach just told us the importance of backing up)the bowler ran up un-usualy slowly and kept looking at me and the stumps.

'ah,must be having no-ball troubles' i thought to myself.

so he bowls,but keeps the ball in his hand,puts the ball next to the stumps and says to me 'your out'

i couldn't understand what the hell was going on so my 10 year old batting partner said 'run' and we ran a single.

dont ask how...

It happened to me once, when I was about 11 or 12. And it was my own cousin who did it to me.

Ok thanks for the info

Er..

Watch your language please people.

3. Peter Kirsten by Kapil Dev, South Africa v India, Port Elizabeth, 1992-93

I saw that one. Kapil warned Kirsten first when he strode out of the crease. Then he again strode out in another delivery stide and Kapil removed the bails. It was hilarious.

This lead to a fast bowler doing the same on a batsman in a match we were playing among classmates. It was not given out as the bowler had not warned earlier.

When was the 'no prior warning required' put into place?

Being Mankadded is like running out of petrol in your car; once it happens to you, you make damn sure it never happens again.
