Well, you must have seen Jos Buttler's run out in the one day match by Senanayake. I am not a big fan of the Sri Lankan team. They are more like an Australia team in their tactics - win at any cost attitude. But I am with them on this one. Senanayake warned Jos Buttler twice in the previous over. With the starts that Buttler takes it is easy to convert easy 1s into 2s. The Sri Lankans noticed that in the previous match he was involved in 22 2's in the last 10 or so overs. So, they realized something was going on. Even at the point of the run-out - you can see Buttle at lest 2 feet away from the crease. He has no business being that far off. In terms if running that is 2 feet he will not have to run not to mention the momentum he has built. This is simply illegal and the bowling team is within their right to run out the batsman. To suggest the bowler is cheating is a joke! Buttler was cheating and deserved to be runout. In fact, he should be run out without a warning. The umpires all should stop asking the fielding captains about the upholding of the appeal. They should send the batsman on his way without any question.
