India vs England: Deepti Sharma's Run-Out Of Charlie Dean Divides Cricket Fraternity

India all-rounder Deepti Sharma's decision to run-out England's Charlotte Dean at the non-striker's end because she was backing up too far before the ball was released has generated a lot of contrasting opinions on social media, leaving the cricketing fraternity divided. This act was earlier popularly known as 'Mankad' after India cricket legend Vinoo Mankad afflicted this mode of dismissal by running out Australia's Bill Brown at non-striker's end. Though many cricketers argue that it is against the spirit of the game, it is totally legal as per the laws of the sport.

With that, England were bowled out and India sealed a 3-0 series win, but the manner of dismissal, as expected, invited controversy and criticism.
