ICC Rule Changes in Cricket: Stumping Replays Limited; Concussion Substitute and BCCI’s Decision!
Sports
In a significant alteration to cricket playing conditions, the International Cricket Council (ICC) has restricted the Decision Review System (DRS) for stumping incidents. Effective from December 12, 2023, teams can now only challenge caught-behind decisions with a separate DRS option, preventing misuse observed in the 2020 series against India.The amended rule mandates umpires to rely solely on side-on camera images for stumping reviews, eliminating the examination of potential snicks. This ensures a focused review for stumped incidents without allowing teams a free review for other modes of dismissal.
The International Cricket Council enforces a new rule restricting Decision Review System (DRS) for stumping incidents, allowing caught-behind challenges separately.
