IND W vs ENG W, 3rd ODI, Heather Knight: The Indian women’s cricket team won the three-match One Day International series against England 3-0 on Saturday (September 24). India won the last ODI by 16 runs and cleaned up the series. The way England’s batsman Charlie Dean was run out by Deepti Mishra in this match, the controversy is not taking its name to end.

Deepti dismissed Charlie Dean in Mankading style :-

Actually Deepti had dismissed Charlie in Mankading style, after which questions were raised on India’s sportsmanship. Deepti now clarified on this saying that she had first warned Charlie about this and only after that he was given out in this way. Now former England captain Heather Knight has objected to this statement of Deepti.

1/2 The game is over, Charlie was dismissed legitimately. India were deserved winners of the match and the series. But no warnings were given. They don’t need to be given, so it hasn’t made the dismissal any less legitimate… https://t.co/TOTdJ3HgJe

Heather Knight wrote this by tweeting :-

Heather wrote on Twitter, ‘Match is over, Dean Charlie has been legally dismissed. Team India deserved to win the match and series, but no warning was given. There was no need to even give a warning, as it does not make it any more valid.

Heather Knight further wrote, ‘But if he is comfortable with the decision that it was a runout, then India does not need to explain the matter by saying false things like warnings.’

2/2 But if they’re comfortable with the decision to affect the run out, India shouldn’t feel the need to justify it by lying about warnings 🤷🏼‍♀️ https://t.co/TOTdJ3HgJe

ICC recently changed its rules and brought ‘Mankading out’ inside the runout :-

The International Cricket Council (ICC) recently changed its rules and brought Mankading out within the runout. In fact, when the batter is at the nonstriker’s end and leaves the crease before the bowler releases the ball, and if the bowler hits the stumps, then the batter is considered out.

Earlier it was considered against the spirit of sportsmanship. But now the ICC has made a very precise rule regarding this. Recently, Indian women’s bowler Deepti Sharma had similarly dismissed England’s Charlie Dean.
