Fake fielding by an Australian cricketer

Former India batsman Sanjay Manjrekar has expressed his sorrow regarding one of the new rules adopted by the International Cricket Council (ICC). Manjrekar terms ‘fake fielding’ rule as the most “ridiculous law”.

Manjrekar feels that the ‘fake fielding’ rule is the most “ridiculous law”. He even took to Twitter and in a series of tweets expressed his views about the newly formed rule.

Here is what stated in the series of tweets, “Five penalty runs for ‘fake fielding’ is the most ridiculous law that’s been brought in, in recent times. Urge ICC to reconsider it. How about penalising batting side 5 runs when b’man fakes a step out & does not? Does he not put the bowler off? Fake fielding law must go.”
