Jonty Rhodes Rants: Impact Player Rule Diminishes All-rounders in IPL

• Jonty Rhodes and Eoin Morgan analyze the IPL's Impact Player Rule ahead of the 2026 season.
• The rule, introduced in 2022, allows 12 players per team, aiming to create more opportunities and strategic depth.
• Rhodes argues the rule sidelines all-rounders, forcing them to specialize and neglecting their secondary skills.
• Examples like Washington Sundar and Shivam Dube show all-rounders being limited to primary skills or ignored.
• Morgan, however, sees the rule as a tactical advantage, inflating scores for entertainment and offering flexibility.
