Running the non-striker out for backing up too far is “not his thing,” according to Moeen Ali, who urged that the practice be eliminated as a form of legal dismissal.
Moeen Ali, an all-rounder for England, was the most recent to weigh in on the debate about removing the non-striker for excessive backing up. Since Deepti Sharma ran Charlie Dean out to end the 3-0 ODI series victory for India in England, the method of dismissal has been the subject of a contentious debate. The vice-captain of the England men’s squad in white-ball cricket, Moeen Ali, advised that the dismissal be rendered unlawful and suggested alternative solutions to the issue of batters stealing ground.
“No, I’m not into that. I doubt I’ll ever engage in such behavior unless I was extremely enraged with someone “The Telegraph cited a statement made by Moeen Ali.
People that do it have the right to do so because it is lawful and not against the law, but he said, “I just hope it doesn’t become a common thing or something that’s regularly done.”
“Really, you’re not making an effort to get a wicket. With a run-out, there is at least some work to be done, as well as with all the other dismissals. Simply waiting for the guy while removing the bails. Even when I was a child, I never liked playing cricket in the backyard “Added Moeen.
“To be fair, you ought to be in your crease, but it’s a challenging one. You barely give the bowlers a glance. Although you believe they are there and ready to bowl, if they decide to halt, your momentum may cause you to leave your crease “He clarified.
He reacted negatively to the firing, saying, “I genuinely just think they should get rid of them.
We were talking about how to handle this the other day, and he said, “There should be a line where you can’t get over and you know how the umpires look for the no-balls, they could perhaps do the same for that, and say, right, he’s got one more, if he does it again, he’s gone.”
