Is Mankading Okay?

I just don't think it's a good look for the game. I can understand the bowler not going through with the delivery if the batsman's miles down the track but personally I wouldn't be taking the bails off if it were outdoor cricket. I'd have to say if something like that were occurring the umpire/opposition captain would have to step in.

If this situation was in indoor cricket though and it was an important final then I'd consider it as it is much more accepted.

I think I probably wouldn't do it myself unless the guy kept doing it even after I'd mentioned it. I'd rather get him bowled.

But at the same time, if I was the non-striker, as long as the bowler did it fair and square and caught me miles out of my crease, I wouldn't complain.

Il make it simple for you, for a batsman leaving his crease too early is the same as a bowled going over the front foot line to bowl.
