Association News
The Association is looking at introducing a number of new rules for next season and they are being reviewed by the Clubs at a special meeting on the 1st June. The main ones being looked at are:
• A leg-side wide rule applying in 1-day games where there are official umpires
• Player ratings – giving greater flexibility to players to play 1 grade below their rating
• No changes to a player rating that was earned on previous season performances
• A new rule of ‘extreme heat’ situations
