Explanation

Vinoo Mankad was the first bowler to dismiss a non-striker by breaking the stumps at the non-striker's end during his run-up, which occurred during India's tour of Australia in 1947-48. This mode of dismissal is now commonly known as 'Mankading' in his honor. The incident happened when he ran out Bill Brown at the non-striker's end, sparking a debate about sportsmanship that continues today.
