Ravichandran Ashwin; Ashwin, a veteran player of the Indian cricket team, has said that giving outs in LPW method is beneficial for batsmen. He has openly talked about this on his YouTube channel. “A batsman plays a river sweep, a switch shot. At that point the ball is pitched outside the lakeside, the batsman hits the pad and if he appeals for outgate, the wicket is dismissed as outside stump. This is not a level playing field for the batsmen and bowlers.

As far as cricket is concerned, there should be equal terms for both the batsman and the bowler. A batsman can play any shot he wants. They have no rules. But there are restrictions that the bowler has to bowl in this direction. This is not a correct rule. It is not fair to the bowlers either. He said that if the ball hits the outside stump, the batsman misses and the ball hits the pad, then the ball must be given out.
He cited the last Test match between India and England as an example. Over ten of those shots, Joe Root tries to play the switch shot. Only once did the ball hit his bat. Another time he missed. The result of the match would have been different if the LBW had appealed to the batted ball when he missed. He said that everyone should pay attention to this. It is also expected that the ICC will take note of this rule change which Ashwin has insisted on.
