Sachin Tendulkar Reveals What Made Him Uncomfortable In His Illustrious Career #Watch

Former Team India captain and Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar has recently revealed that ‘Mankading’ dismissal always made him uncomfortable for being called ‘Mankaded’ in his illustrious career.

The batting maestro said that the introduction of new rules in cricket by the MCC committee is a good news for all of us.

“I am quite supportive of a couple of new rules introduced in cricket by the MCC committee and the first one is Mankading dismissal. I was always uncomfortable with that particular dismissal being called ‘Mankaded’,” Tendulkar said in a video shared on Twitter.

Cricket is a beautiful sport. It allows us to challenge existing norms and help refine laws of the game. Some of the changes introduced by MCC are praiseworthy.#CricketTwitter pic.twitter.com/bet0pakGQM

“I am happy that Mankading dismissal has been changed to run out. According to me, it always should have been run out. So, this is good news for all of us. I was not comfortable with Mankading at all, but that won’t be the case anymore,” he added.

Talking about another change of rule where a new batter comes in after a dismissal and takes strike irrespective of whether the non-striker has crossed or not, the legendary cricketer said, it is only fair that the bowler gets the chance to bowl at the new batter.

“It’s absolutely fair because if a bowler has been successful in picking a wicket, he should get a chance then to bowl to a new batter,” he further said.
