OriginalCopy Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 ICC reduces number of appeals to 2 in umpire referral system Thursday, January 29, 2009 4:27:22 PM Dubai: In a bid to prevent "frivolous challenges" by players, the International Cricket Council will reduce the number of appeals to two in the umpire referral system. Enlisting the details of the referral system to be followed in the trial period, ICC General Manager-Cricket David Richardson said, "we need to ensure that proper signals are relayed to the on-field umpires and the 3rd umpire". The following signals will be on the trial period: 2.1.1.2. If the batsman believes that he inner edged the ball despite which he was given out LBW, he shall tap his bat against the pad 3 times within 5 seconds of the umpire's decision. This shall then be conveyed by the on field umpire to the 3rd umpire. 2.1.1.3. If the batsman believes that a catch was not taken cleanly by any fielder, yet given out by the umpire, he shall take the ball to the concerned fielder and throw it to him by hand to catch it on the half volley. If the fielder takes the catch on half volley, the umpire shall refer the decision to the 3rd umpire. However, if the fielder manages to catch the ball on the full, the batsman shall be deemed out and must return to the pavilion immediately. In case of another disagreement, there shall be a fairplay bidding between the concerned fielder and the batsman and the winner will have the last word. Money from the proceeds shall be divided equally between the ICC executive committee. 2.1.1.3.1. If the ball hit by the batsman hits the umpire full toss and the fielder catches the ball on half volley, the batsman shall be allowed to signal his appeal directly to the third umpire by replaying the scenario. However, this time the batsman shall have the right to ask the umpire to stand no closer than 3.5 yards from him and have the non-striker toss the ball for him to hit the umpire again. The fielder, who is also a part of this appeal shall catch the ball on half volley to complete the appeals process. 2.1.1.4. If a batsman believes that he copped a hard blow on a rising delivery in the groin area and yet given out LBW, he shall appeal by taking the ball and hitting his groin again to indicate. He shall only be allowed to continue if he agrees to take another blow in the groin by a bowler chosen by the fielding captain. The chosen bowler shall get 3 chances. The batsman must have all protective equipment removed and shall stand in front the stumps with his hands tied behind his back. 2.1.1.5. If a fielding captain believes his fielder took a catch cleanly yet the batsman was given not out, he shall appeal the decision by giving 36 $100 bills to the fielder to reaffirm his faith in his fielder and a $1,654 application fee to ICC. Only then will his appeal be considered. 2.1.1.5.1 All international captains must take a Fifth Umpire exam in order to act as one on the field. However, in case of an unsolicited decision, the finger used for that decision shall be separated from the hand and will become the property of the ICC. Other details of the referral system are being worked with Afghanistan Cricket Board to limit "frivolous challenges" by players. Link to comment

Mr. Wicket Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 You forgot: If a batsman thinks he was given out incorrectly to a catch not taken cleanly, he should not be standing there and questioning the integrity of Ricky Pwnting. Link to comment
