ICC updating playing conditions

[Cleavy]

NEW PLAYING CONDITIONS Will Be Implemented By ICC From June Which Includes 4 Changes Like Ball Rules, Concussion Rules, DRS & Boundary Line Catches.

1. There will be two new balls for overs 1 to 34. After over 34, the fielding team will choose one of the two balls to be used for overs 35 to 50.
The chosen ball will be used at both ends for the remainder of the match (unless it needs to be changed).

In a match reduced to 25 overs or less per side before the first innings commences, each team shall have only one new ball for its Innings."

2. There will be some modifications to the concussion rules too. Now teams will be required to submit the names of five concussion replacement players to the match referee before the start of a match. They are: one wicketkeeper, one batter, one seam bowler, one spinner and one all-rounder.

3 & 4. The ICC informed that the rule changes to boundary line catches and DRS protocols will be informed later.
Note : Rules To Be Applied From WTC Final
-------------------------
it will be interesting to see what they intend to change with the boundary line catches.

Having one ball get to 33 overs old will bring the contest between bat/ball batsman/bowler back.

Having one ball get to 33 overs old will bring the contest between bat/ball batsman/bowler back.

Will favour England, IMO, whose bowlers are comparatively toothless without a ball that works.

It’ll help medium pace/spinners a bit which is a good thing imo
