Morgan, Roy, and others are up in arms too.
I think (I am speculating here) there are few things going on which have some of the players riled up:
1. If Virat Kohli is mankadded, the level of noise would be far higher than it is now which is my Shane Warne is unhappy.
2. Upcoming WC 2019 could see another repeat of this ugly drama where Ashwin would use this trick and others won't. More ugliness.
3. Mankad is extremely hard to call in a club/league game and considering dwindling support for Cricket outside India, there is another negative for young people considering the sport.
Ben Stokes tweeted that he will "never ever ever'' mankad Virat Kohli in the WC final. That says something.
1) Mankads (and the ensuing clutching of pearls) are always hilarious
2) If Kohli is dismissed via Mankad when he's on 99 in the World Cup final against Pakistan it will be objectively the funniest thing to ever happen throughout all of time and space. If Mohammed Amir is the one to Mankad him then it would so impossibly funny that the universe might just implode from the hilarity.
3) Forgive me for not giving a single damn about Ben Stokes weighing in as a moral arbiter on anything
4) I would put the number of young children that have ever thought "I like the look of this cricket malarkey but this Mankad thing is giving me second thoughts" at being ooooh...about zero
5) Did I mention that Mankads are hilarious? I mean my man here has literally done the "Won't someone think of the children?" thing. That's just brilliant.
