Mankad style dismissal of Jos Butler one of the highlights of IPL 2019
During IPL 2019, Ravi Ashwin used the Mankad method to dismiss Jos Buttler when Kings XI Punjab played Rajasthan Royals. In this, the player is not run-out or bowled out, but the stumps are taken when the player is not in the crease. This method of dismissal is not illegal but does not incline with the spirit of the game.
