-Vinay Kumar
Tomorrow on October 2, the second match of the 3-match T20I series between India and South Africa (IND vs SA T20I Series, 2022 2nd Match Guwahati) will be played in Guwahati. Team India is ahead 1-0 by winning the first match of this series. The new ICC rules have come into effect from 1 October. In such a situation, this will be the first match to be played with the new rules.
It is worth noting that the first match of the IND vs SA T20I Series, 2022 was played on 28 September under the old rules. Let’s take a look at what the new rules are:
new amended rules
If any spectators or animals enter during the ongoing match
Many times a spectator or animal enters during the match, then that bowling ball will be considered as a dead ball. Getting a player out by Mankading was called ‘Spirit of Cricket’ until 1 October, but now such cases will be considered as ‘run out’. If the player at the non-striker’s end comes out of his crease just before the bowler bowls the ball and the bowling bowler drops the stumps with the help of the ball, then the non-striker will now be ‘run out’.
On misbehavior by the fielding team
If a bowler behaves inappropriately during his bowling, that is, during the run-up, or does some intentional wrongdoing, then in such cases the umpire of the match can take action. 5 runs may be added to the batting team’s account as a penalty. Apart from this, the umpire can also call such a ball as a dead ball.
Catch-out rules
When a batter is caught out, the new batter will start at the striker’s end. Changing the crease or not changing the crease of the dismissed batsman will no longer make any sense. Till now it used to happen that if the batsman making noise changes the strike before being caught out, the new batsman came on non strike.
Time for the new batsman to take strike
When a new batsman comes on strike after the dismissal of a batsman, he has to come on strike within 2 minutes in International Test matches and One Day International matches. Whereas, in T20 International this time will be of 90 seconds.
Such a change has been made in this rule after much discussion. According to the earlier rule, the new batsman had to come on strike within 3 minutes. Now according to the new rule, if the batsman does not come within the stipulated time limit, then the captain of the fielding team can appeal for tom out.

The bat or the batsman must be inside the pitch when the batsman is playing the ball. If the batsman is forced to come out of the pitch, the umpire will call at such time to declare that ball as a dead ball. If a ball from the bowler’s side forces the batsman to come off the pitch, then the umpire can call it a No Ball.
In-Match Penalty
The ‘In-match Penalty System’ implemented in T20I in January of this year will now be implemented in ODI also after the end of ICC ODI World Cup Super League to be held in 2023.
Non-striker’s Run Out
If a non-striker batsman walks out of the crease before the bowling bowler bowls the ball, and if he runs out the batsman at that non-striker’s end, it is now considered run out.
Before the striker throws the ball towards the batsman
If a bowler takes a run-up for bowling, and before coming into the delivery stride, observes that the batsman facing the ball has come beyond the crease, and if that bowler strikes with the intention of dismissing the batsman. Throws the ball towards the facing batsman, it is considered a dead ball.
