What the laws say about the controversial run-out of Muneeba Ali
Former Australian cricket player Mel Jones explained why Muneeba Ali was handed out. She said the batter was not running or diving when her bat came from the fold.
According to Cricket Act 30.1.2, a seizure is considered safe when they run or dive and have a part of their bat grounded outside the popping fold. Muneeba was supposed to be from her ground when the stumps were hit because she did not ran or dived.
“Law of cricket 30.1.2. Battering will not be considered from her ground or diving to her ground and then, and part of her bat, the bat has been directed past the popping increase,” she said in the air.
“There is subsequent loss of contact between the ground and a part of her person or bat, or between the die and the person. So she did not run, she did not dive. And so because of that fact there was no running or diving; that is why she was spent,” Jones added.
