ICC Changes Rule: Runners abolished, ODI and run-out laws tweaked


The changes at a glance

  • No runners in international cricket
  • New balls from both ends in ODIs
  • Batting and bowling Powerplays to be taken between overs 16 and 40
  • Captains to be suspended after only two over-rate breaches in a year, as opposed to the existing three
  • Batsmen can be dismissed obstructing the field if they change their course while running to prevent a run-out chance
  • Bowlers will be allowed to run out a non-striker backing up unfairly
