'Don't understand the point of this': RR's overseas star criticises new IPL rule; 'Has this rule ever been a problem?'

Hindustan Times  

On Tuesday, a number of new rules and a revision of existing playing conditions were reported in the Indian Premier League for the upcoming edition of the tournament. The 2022 IPL begins on March 26 with Mahendra Singh Dhoni's Chennai Super Kings taking on the Kolkata Knight Riders in the opening game of the tournament. Among the many changes, the Board of Control for Cricket in India adopted Marylebone Cricket Club's suggestion for the new batter to replace the dismissed batter after the latter is caught -- irrespective of whether both batters had crossed each other before the catch was taken. The rule from the MCC met with mixed reviews and New Zealand all-rounder James Neesham, who will appear for the Rajasthan Royals in the upcoming edition, wasn't a fan. Among other rule changes also included an increase in unsuccessful reviews, rescheduling of matches in case of a franchise's incapability of fielding a team due to Covid-19 concerns, and an alternative way to decide the result of the final if conditions don't allow a Super Over.
