The International Cricket Council (ICC) has once again executed a little change in the cricket rules. Two years ago, the use of saliva to shine the ball in cricket was temporarily banned due to Corona. Now it has been made permanent. The Men's Cricket Committee, led by Sourav Ganguly, has made some changes to the rules and implemented them afresh by negotiating with the Women's Cricket Committee on the rules made by the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC). The new rules will come into effect from October 1.
* Catch-out rule- When a batsman is caught out, the new batsman will come to play on strike. Whether the losing batsman changes the crease or not will not have any effect on it. While the first rule was that if the batsman changes the strike before being caught out, the new batsman used to come on non-strike.
* Use of saliva- Cricket started to be affected since the beginning of 2020 due to the Corona epidemic. After that, along with the lockdown, cricket was also closed all over the world. Then some new rules were made to restart the game. Then the use of saliva was temporarily banned. But now the cricket committee also considered this rule and made it permanent. That is, now the use of saliva in cricket will be completely banned. This rule will now become permanent.
* Time to take strike for a new batter- When a new batter comes on strike after a player loses, he will have to come on strike within 2 minutes in Tests and ODIs. While in T20 International, this time has been set at 90 seconds. This rule has been slightly reflected after much thought. The first new batsman had to come on strike within 3 minutes. But now the time has been reduced a bit. If the new batter doesn't come on time, the fielding team captain can appeal for Time out.
* The right of the striker (batter) to play the ball- This is prohibited because the bat or batter must be inside the pitch while playing. If the batter is forced out of the pitch to play, the umpire will call it a dead ball. If a ball forces the batter to come out of the pitch, the umpire will call it a no-ball.
* Wrong behaviour on the part of the fielding team- If the bowler does some inappropriate behaviour or deliberate wrong movement due to bowling (run-up), then the umpire can take action on it. While imposing a fine, the batting team can also add 5 runs to the team's account. Also, the umpire will also call it a dead ball.
* Runout of non-striker- If a non-striker comes out of the crease before the bowler puts the ball, then if the bowler runs out that batter, then it was earlier considered as 'unfair play,' but now it will be called runout.
* Throw the ball towards the striker before delivery- A bowler takes a run-up to bowl the ball and before coming into the delivery stride, he sees that the batter has come forward beyond the crease. Then the bowler throws the ball towards the striker with the intention of getting out, then it will be called a dead ball.
* In-match penalty rule- The in-match penalty rule implemented in T20 International in January 2022 will now be adopted in the ODI format as well. This rule will be applicable after the end of the Men's Cricket World Cup Super League in 2023.
