Melbourne Stars and Melbourne Renegades clashed in the Bigg Boss T20 League in Australia. The Renegades team, who batted first, scored 141 runs losing 7 wickets in 20 overs.
After this, the Melbourne Stars team was bowled out for 108 runs. The Renegades won by 33 runs.
Melbourne Stars captain Adam Zamba left the crease before batsman Rogers, who was at the bowling end when he bowled the 5th ball of the last over of the match. Noticing this, Jamba ran him out in the Mankat style. It went to a 3rd umpire review.
The non-striker can be run out if he/she is out of his/her ground up until the moment the bowler would normally have been expected to release the ball.
That means when the arm gets to its highest point. (1/2)#MCCLaws | @BBLpic.twitter.com/fWtdJAtIh1

On the surface everything was fine and the fans were expecting an out. But the rule is that the bowler’s arm should be at an angle of less than 90 degrees while bowling. In spite of this, Jamba’s arm has gone beyond 90 degrees. Based on this, the umpires declared the result as no run out.

That is, the rule is that Baur’s hand should not go forward. For that this 90 degree angle measurement is calculated. A video of Jamba’s mancutt appeal and the referee’s verdict is now going viral.
