New Law Changes 2018

Scott Ledger

Strap in, these are the Laws that could potentially effect us...

Law 20: DEAD BALL. If a ball gets stuck in a fielders helmet it is still in play and fielders can remove the ball and claim a catch.

Law 21: NO BALL. Any delivery which bounces more then once is now a NO BALL.

Any delivery which goes passed a Batter higher then his hip without bouncing is now a NO BALL. The bowler will receive a first warning then after his second NO BALL for height will be removed from the attack for the rest of the game.

Bowlers will now not receive 5 wides against their figures when they bowl a delivery that goes over the boundary line. The bowler will receive 1 Wide and the othe 4 Runs will go down as Byes.

A delivery which goes above the batters head after bouncing was previously classed as a Wide. This type of delivery is now a NO BALL.

Law 32: CAUGHT. A catch now can be claimed after the ball rebounds or hits there helmet.
