Are run outs at the non strikers end out of order
By the bowler
Or tough luck because the batter at the non strikers end has left their crease in an attempt to gain an advantage

Fine if batsman is given a warning by the bowler first I reckon.
It’s now in the laws of cricket as a dismissal.

When I was a kid I was always taught to leave your bat in the crease at the non strikers end.
Its absolutely fair game IMO if the bowlers takes the bails off

This, my opinion on it has changed over the years and I’m in the bowlers camp on this.
When you consider how many close finishes are produced nowadays in white ball cricket I think that runs should be taken away as ‘one short’ if a batsman at the non-strikers end leaves his ground prior to the ball being delivered. The umpires can now do it from video evidence for no balls and so I don’t think it would be difficult to do it for ‘one-short’ situations either.

Im a batter and I’ve always thought it was a bit dodgy being encouraged to “backup” as much as possible.

Never understood the controversy. Stay in your crease or risk a run out / stumping / whatever.
I used to be against it, but I think with how much the game has improved in the white ball stuff, its like a completely different sport, then every inch does count on the field.
In test cricket I not sure would feel comfortable if Mark Wood had done it in the middle of the Ashes though, got to be honest.

Middle of a test because the batsman is half a centimeter out his crease I'd not like. If a situation arose like 2005 Edgbaston with only a couple runs needed to win and the batsmans a yard out I'd not mind it.
White ball world cup was won by a matter of feet so shows the importance of every inch in white ball cricket. Not the perfect example as Guptill wasn't the non striker but point remains
Agree with the first paragraph fully
I don’t necessarily disagree with it but I think Broad made an interesting point when the rules changed the other week. He said he wouldn’t do it because, for him, bowling the batter out is a skill and there’s no skill in a Mankad. I’m not quoting exactly but that’s the gist.
