The term 'Mankading' was once first coined in 1947 when the previous India cricketer Vinoo Mankad ran out Australia's Bill Brown at the non-striker's finish right through a Test match at the Sydney Cricket Ground.

The incident happened in the 13th over of the Rajasthan Royals innings when Ashwin, while bowling his fourth and the remaining over of the spell, stopped and took the bails off prior to bowling a delivery which left non-striker Buttler shocked.

Chasing 185 to win, Rajasthan Royals had been 108 for one in 12.4 overs at that level.


Ashwin appealed for the run-out and Buttler was once given out by means of the 3rd umpire. The incident left Buttler furious who appeared in ominous touch (69 off 43 balls). He had a heated trade with Ashwin prior to leaving the sector.


As consistent with the rules of the sport, the 3rd umpire declared Buttler out however one of these dismissal had always raised eyebrows because it is considered against the spirit of the sport.
