Non-Striker Run Out II: The Quickening

Season 12, Ep 32: We've been anticipating it, and here it was: a run-out of the non-striker between two major cricket nations, signalling the next phase of evolution of this much-maligned dismissal. On this episode we look at the current structure of the Laws, the details of what Charlie Dean and Deepti Sharma did on the day, and what the MCC might do next to help protect players and umpires from opprobrium. Also this week, the Strauss Recommendations signal a big shift for English county cricket, Cameron Green makes an all-but-too-late case for T20 World Cup selection, and Pakistan do some extraordinary things via Babar Azam and Mohammed Rizwan. Plus a belter of a Nerd Pledge.
