However, her model of occasions was contradicted by England captain Heather Knight.

“The game is over, Charlie was dismissed legitimately. India were deserved winners of the match and the series. But no warnings were given,” Knight wrote on Twitter.

“They don’t should be given, so it hasn’t made the dismissal any much less professional.

“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.”

The MCC (Marylebone Cricket Club) has backed Team India and reminded one and all the modifications led to to the sport.

In a press release launched on Sunday, the MCC, generally known as the custodians of the Laws of Cricket, mentioned: “MCC THIS YEAR ANNOUNCED AMENDMENTS TO THE LAWS OF CRICKET TO MOVE BEING RUN OUT AT THE NON-STRIKER’S END, FROM LAW 41 UNFAIR PLAY, TO LAW 38 RUN OUT.”

“This change will formally come into impact from 1 October 2022. This was achieved to make clear this matter and to put an onus on batters to make sure that they don’t go away the crease on the non-striker’s finish, previous to a bowler releasing the ball.

“The Law is obvious, because it must be for all umpires to have the ability to simply interpret all through all ranges of the sport and in any respect moments within the sport.

“Cricket is a broad church and the spirit by which it’s performed isn’t any totally different. As custodians of the Spirit of Cricket, MCC appreciates its utility is interpreted in a different way throughout the globe.

“Respectful debate is wholesome and may proceed, as the place one particular person sees the bowler as breaching the Spirit in such examples, one other will level on the non-striker gaining an unfair benefit by leaving their floor early.

“MCC’s message to non-strikers continues to be to stay of their floor till they’ve seen the ball go away the bowler’s hand. Then dismissals, such because the one seen yesterday, can’t occur.

“Whilst yesterday was indeed an unusual end to an exciting match, it was properly officiated and should not be considered as anything more,” it concluded.’
