Papua New Guinea player John Kariko was mankad by Uganda bowler Joseph Baguma in the ICC Under 19 World Cup 2022 match between Uganda U19 and Papua New Guinea U19 on Friday, January 28.
Many believe that running out the non-striker is against the spirit of the game. However, several people also believe that it’s completely legal and there is nothing wrong with it.

Meanwhile, the incident took place in the 16th over of the second innings, when Papua New Guinea players were batting. Non-striker John Kariko had backed up too far at his end and Joseph Baguma decided to run him out.
South Africa wrist spinner Tabraiz Shamsi reacting to this wicket, stated:
“Nothing wrong with this if the batsman was out of his crease before the ball was bowled ….bowlers get penalised even if they overstep by a millimeter by mistake and a free hit is given so batsmen should stay behind the crease too.”
