Dhoni cant use his Famous Trick anymore
X
How often did cricket lovers see Mahendra Singh Dhoni trick opponents by pretending as if he collected a throw and letting the ball go on to hit the stumps? Dhoni was hailed for such smart tactics to deceive the Opponents.

Sadly, MSD could no more use this famous trick on the field because of the new rule introduced by International Cricket Council (ICC). If the onfield Umpire finds anyone from the Bowling Team willfully faking, Then Batting Team will be gifted 5 runs as bonus.

Within 24 hours after the introduction of Law 41.5, A Queensland fielder Marnus Labuschagne faced the penalty for trying to fool the batsmen of the Opposition Team during the JLT One-Day Cup.

Former Cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar firmly opposed the new rule saying it's the most ridiculous law ICC has brought in the recent times. He questioned, 'Why don't ICC penalize the Batting Side 5 runs when a Batsman fakes a step out & does not to put the bowler off?'
