Alias in command substitution

Normally declaring a alias inside the command substitution would not
reflect in main shell like........
lithack@aura:~$ `alias l=ls`
lithack@aura:~$ l
l: command not found
But using this command .....
lithack@aura:~$ `alias l=ls;alias`
lithack@aura:~$ l

It runs in main shell. Is this a bug?

Note: This only works in bash shell.
