I don't see why the batsmen can be stumped but the non-striker is free to move off down the pitch with seemingly impunity!
Bowlers get no-balled for creeping a millimeter past the crease!
The media are focused on the specific mankad delivery, what about the other 40 or 50 deliveries Butler was the non-striker?
Seems to be a fair bit of outrage.
"not really cricket" apparently
but looking at it from an objective (non-cricket person) point of view I see it as rather arrogant that you can set off before the ball is bowled.
Out every time if you get caught doing in baseball and don't get back.
It's like running around the man on the mark and getting upset because the umpire calls play on.
