Impact Player Rule Is Killing The Role Of An All-rounder, Says Jonty Rhodes
Lucknow Super Giants: Lucknow Super Giants fielding coach Jonty Rhodes said that he is not a "big fan of the Impact Player" rule of the Indian Premier League (IPL) as it kills the role of an all-rounder.
Rhodes critique comes in support of prominent players like Rohit Sharma, who have expressed concerns that the rule discourages the development of allrounders and leads to inflated scores. However, Ravichandran Ashwin believes that the rule adds a valuable strategic element to the game.
"I am siding myself with the right use of the Impact player rule because players are almost playing with freedom so I'm just worried about the role of an all-rounder, because it's a simple role but plays vital job in cricket and you need that for test cricket 50 over and all other T20s as well."
