Australian captain Alyssa Healy reveals the cricket rule that would change

Australian women’s cricket captain Alyssa Healy They made headlines with their bold and unexpected responses during a recent episode of the Listnr podcast. When asked about the rule that would change in the cricket, Healy joked the wear and tear of dismissal by the captures, an idea that he even caught the host by surprise. However, what really aroused the controversy was his intriguing ball manipulation, which caused a discussion about his presence in the game and the tactics that the players allegedly used between the racks.

“Imagine -you whispered without being trapped,”

During the interview, Healy raised with a simple question: “If you could change a rule in cricket, what would it be?” Instead of going to conventional grievances such as bad light stops or Pitch documentation, Healy responded with a rather unpleasant but radical suggestion, eliminating layoffs by catches.

“Oh, I just think you should do -you out of hand.” Healy said, laughing. The host, taken by the idea, responded, “It is quite difficult to go through the MCC, I would have thought” Healy continued, “No, it would be like that: Imagine if you just hurt and never catch you! This would be so great.”

The host admitted that he hoped that Healy would criticize the rules of light or surface manipulations, not a fundamental change as removing catches as a mode of removal. However, what followed below caught the audience outside of guard.

All the bets on the cricket tournament?

Healy made an amazing pivot, considering a controversial theme that has stormed the Australian cricket in the past: the manipulation of the ball. He suggested the idea of allowing a cricket tournament where players could use any method they wanted, similar to what was known as Olympic Games that allowed practices that improve performance.

“Well, no, I was really thinking about this before. And I really would love to see how the ball manipulated the game.” Healy explained.

Feeling the sensitive nature of the subject, the host reminded Healy of Healy of the infamous “sand door” in Australia that caused the ban Steve Smith, David Warner and Cameron Bancroft In 2018. The host warned humorously: “Attentive, that could go well.”

Recognizing the controversial path of discussion, continued Healy, “I know where this could go, but I would, I would love, you know how the Olympic Games liked, where is it all free for all?”

The host came in, remembering -the Olympic Games have not yet officially implemented this approach to which Healy responded, “No but they are, so take whatever you want.”

The discussion then climbed in a fun hypothetical scenario, imagining a cricket tournament where players could manipulate the ball in any way they wanted: using long nails, minds or other creative methods to manipulate their condition.

A dark art in the cricket?

As the conversation progressed, Healy revealed that ball manipulation is an open secret within Cricket Fraternity, and although it is rarely publicly called, many players know exactly what is happening.

“My favorite I heard is super glue on goal gloves. Healy revealed.

The host, clearly entertaining, but aware of the implications, responded, “You don’t want to take off the wrong side of the ball, right?

Healy dumped, laughing, “This is the best story I have heard! Obviously, I’m not calling names, because they are still playing international cricket. But incredibly skilled!”
