Buttler run out and IPL 2019
Anyone willing to admit they follow this
Interesting article regarding a controversial Mankading of Buttler by Ashwin:
http://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/26365422/jos-buttler-dismissal-deemed-legal-mcc-amid-scrutiny-laws
Short version:
Ashwin paused his delivery stride
Buttler left his ground anticipating a possible quick run as would be normal
Ashwin whips the bails off
TV umpire gives him out
The interpretation comes down to whether or not the umpire felt that the run out was affected before Buttler would reasonably have anticipated that the ball would have been released, and if Ashwins pause was done deliberately to trick Buttler into leaving his ground which would have been considered against the spirit of cricket.
The MCC ruling was that they were happy with the on field call as it was made with the correct rules in mind, but also would have been happy had it been given not out due to the ambiguity around both points.
It does seem a bit of a fudge but ultimately the ICC remains firm that batsmen do not have free reign to steal ground before the ball is bowled. Equally they do not want this to lead to bowlers trying to trick batsmen. The approach is correct to me, in this case the interpretation seems harsh on Buttler on both counts, but it seems the MCC did not want to be appearing to criticise the umpire or levelling an accusation of foul play at a senior international player.
Theres a good chance we will see some shenanigans of this nature at the world cup, expect it to blow up much bigger if there is. Its good its come to light now in a relatively high profile case so at least everyone should be clear on what the rules are, its now down to the umpires to make tough on field decisions consistently if this happens again.

Saw a clip and some stills of the dismissal. Buttler was still in his ground when Ashwin's front foot landed and, imo, when his arm started to come over. It looked like a clear pause in the bowling action.
This is the second time Buttler has been out this way. Against SL he was comfortably out of his ground and certainly afterwards accepted it was a fair cop. This time he was incandescent.
Rentagobs like Warne are calling Ashwin a cheat and a disgrace, others blaming the laws.

Re: Buttler run out and IPL 2019
Yeah LT hence the clarification statement. As you say the previous incident was a lot more clear cut, and the authorities have long been of the opinion that batsmen only have them selves to blame if they are stealing ground.
The laws are clear, and clearly understood. Buttlers rage in this case is down to how they were applied by the umpires on two accounts. the MCC statements have been more carefuly considered than the rent a gobs, but both sides have a valid argument.

Controversy at the end of the game today where Malinga's final ball was just a no ball and the umpire missed it, robbing RCB of another chance to tie/win the game. One inch is a huge margin in a game of tight margins (stay in your bloody crease Jos!).

Yeah I saw Kholi having a melt down in the press over it.
It does feel like this year the IPL is trying to actively market itself with controversy. Apparently this is something the NFL has been doing for a few years now after discovering that "bad" ref calls would lead to an increase in viewing figures, so they actively get their pundits to exaggerate and amplify instances of perceived injustice for talking points. We see this to some extent in all sports and the wider press loves it, it gives them something to write about.
But when it boils down to it it was just a missed no ball ... it used to be a rare thing that they got called at all even there was a wicket. Whilst it did happen at key time in the game its one of many many decisions and actions that influenced the outcome. The level of focus on it is totally out of proportion to how big a deal it really was. They still would've need a six off the rebowled ball to change the result, and it was the bits and pieces squad filler on strike not de Villiers...hes only hit 1 maximum in a top level T20 competition and 11 in the Mumbai local league, this is not a player with any great batting pedigree.
Kholis comments certainly are disproportionate and the sort of thing that would get you fined in #otherspots.
its like no-one cares about the actual cricket this year, even in regard to that Buttler incident which was a bit further outside the norms and does touch on some wider controversies in the way the rules are phrased and applied. But even with the clear(ish) statement from the MCC the rentopinions are still trying to claim theres problems that dont exist there.

Andre Russell - a brutal innings of 48* off 13 to win his franchise the game from a dead situation.
Bit of an adjustment switching to that from the County Championship earlier!
