Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), the custodian of cricket laws, has decided to move away from terming the law unfair to run out the non-striker’s crossing of the crease before the bowler completes his complete stride. The MCC, after researching rigorously, has come up with various laws that will change the face of cricket. The laws are expected to come into effect from October.
