Riyan Parag tries absurd bowling style, bowls rare no-ball – WATCH

NEW DELHI: Riyan Parag's delivery was called a no-ball for an unusual reason during the second T20I match between India and Bangladesh at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. Parag, who was bowling his first over in the 11th over of the Bangladesh innings, attempted to change his bowling style on the fourth ball. He tried a peculiar sling action, reminiscent of former India batter Kedar Jadhav's wide action.

However, this attempt backfired as Parag stepped outside the pitch tramlines, resulting in the ball being rightfully signaled as a no-ball.
Law 21.5 of the rules of cricket set by England's famous Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) mentions the following:
"The bowler's back foot must land within and not touch the return crease, appertaining to his/her stated mode of delivery. - behind the popping crease. If the bowler's end umpire is not satisfied that all of these three conditions have been met, he/she shall call and signal No ball."

WATCH:

According to this rule, as soon as Parag's back foot landed outside the white tramline to his left, it was considered a no-ball.
In fact, Parag's foot not only landed outside the tramline but also outside the pitch altogether.
The umpire took a couple of checks to confirm the decision but ultimately declared it a no-ball.
Parag scored 15 runs and claimed one wicket in the match.
India defeated Bangladesh by 86 runs and sealed the three-match series 2-0.
The third and final T20I will be played on Saturday at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad.
