ICC discards batting Powerplay, relaxes field restrictions


Recommended Posts

Posted

In a move to give bowlers a bit of breathing room in 50-overs cricket, the ICC board has decided to do away with catching fielders in the first ten overs, get rid of the batting Powerplay, and allow five fielders outside the 30-yard circle in the last ten overs of an ODI innings. The other notable change that will take place from July 5 will see free hits awarded for all no balls in ODI and T20 internationals, not just when bowlers overstep. So now what part timers can be back and tha era of playing 7 batsmen.Have ur say guys

The statement is not clear though.It says now max of 5 fielders are allowed outside 30 yard in the last 10 overs .what about the previous 40 overs?

They didn't even discuss the next WC so it will have only 10 teams. Shameful. Ireland and Afghanistan deserve a place.
Last moment (like Indian reality shows) it will happen, dont worry...

Good decision to grt rid of the BPP and 5 players outside the ring in the final 10. Gotta remove the 2 new ball rule but having said that,with two major events in England,two new white balls might not be the worse scenario for the bowlers

You do get more than 32 balls inside first 10 overs still. Besides Devilliers can do that even with 6 outside the circle when in zone.

"The ICC Board approved a new strategy for the organisation built around a vision of cricket becoming the ‘world’s favourite sport’. Cuts WC to 10 teams for the next 8 years, halves the number of t20 world cups, snubs the Olympics and its free funding, gives Associates 1/10 of Zim's funding :hysterical: :hysterical: :hysterical:

I really don't understand how can associates grow with so low funding. I think I read somewhere you saying that Ireland get 4 million while Zim get 60 million?
