Mankad caused controversy in 1947/48 on India's tour of Australia, and involved Australian batsman Bill
brown. His act infuriated the Australian media but, Sir Don bradman in his autobiography defended
XY…!! Cricket world is remembering him for an act in due course is known by his name Y.
Name XY and put Funda on his act, also tell me the popular name of the act named after him.

59. Vinoo Mankad and “MANKADING".
Mankad caused controversy in 1947/48 on India's tour of AUSTRALIA, when he ran out Bill Brown backing up in the
second Test.
In other words, he broke the wicket at the non-striker's end during his run-up while the batsman at that end was
out of his ground. He had done the same thing to Brown in the game against an Australian XI earlier on the tour,
but his running out of Brown infuriated the Australian media, and running someone out in this way is now referred
to as “MANKADING".
However, Sir Don Bradman in his autobiography defended Mankad, saying:
For the life of me, I can't understand why [the press] questioned his sportsmanship. The Laws of Cricket make it
quite clear that the non striker must keep within his ground until the ball has been delivered. If not, why is the
provision there which enables the bowler to run him out.
By backing up too far or too early, the non striker is very obviously gaining an unfair advantage.
