IPL 2024 | Rajasthan's Sandeep, Lucknow's Pooran back two-bouncer rule

The Hindu  

Rajasthan Royals paceman Sandeep Sharma welcomed a rule change in the Indian Premier League that allows bowlers to send down two bouncers per over, saying it would keep batsmen guessing and make the game more unpredictable. "But with two bouncers, the batsmen are also in two minds that there's still one bouncer left for the bowler to use." West Indies batsman Nicholas Pooran, whose unbeaten 64 went in vain during Lucknow's unsuccessful chase of 194, also backed the rule tweak. Rahul underwent concussion protocols after being struck on the helmet by New Zealand paceman Trent Boult but the Lucknow skipper did not dwell too much on the rule or his team's loss.
