That mankading/running when a ball bounces of the non striker are equal to Warner hitting a double bounce ball for six

According to Gambhir, Warner shouldn't have hit the ball. Should have left it alone as it bounced twice .
Warner took advantage of it , so it was against "spirit " of cricket .

I don't know I haven't really thought about it. I think it's a pretty dickhead thing to do but probably gets over blown. Also batsman shouldn't get an early advantage with a run by backing up too so maybe fix that so mankading will be fixed by itself

yeah i'm still not getting it tbh. it's just a **** ball, it's not as if he ran off the pitch and put people in theoretical danger

Unnecessary False equivalence.
Infact Gambhir should have accused Warner of taking money and walking when he was clearly not out according to Sniko ?

I cant believe people are this dense. There was nothing wrong with hitting the ball that bounced twice. There was nothing wrong with running when the ball deflected off the guy at the other end. That was Gambhir's point.

Gambhir mentioned the mankading too tbh. But yeah his point is that spirit of cricket rules are spurious bullshit

Presumably Gambhir is of the view the Pakistan batsmen shouldn't have hit the waist high no balls which slipped out of the bowlers' hands for six either.
Jeez, that head knock he copped in the field against England back in the day really did some damage, didn't it.

Wtf are you saying and why do you resort to personal attacks?

I have no idea who Gambhir is, aside from being associated with gambhiring, but he seems like a prize wanker. Is this correct?
