available, the number of overs shall be reduced at a rate of 14.28 overs per hour, which is
inclusive of the provision of drinks intervals, in respect of the lost playing time. Should the
calculations result in a fraction of an over the fraction shall be ignored.
• In addition, should the innings of the team batting first have been completed prior to the

maximum number per bowler necessary to make up the balance.

the striker, the umpire shall call and signal No ball and immediately call and signal Dead ball.

24- FIELDER’S ABSENCE; SUBSTITUTES

field. The fielding restriction areas should be marked by continuous painted white lines or ‘dots’
at 5 yard (4.57 metres) intervals, each ‘dot’ to be covered by a white plastic or rubber (but not
metal) disc measuring 7 inches (18 cm) in diameter.
• At the instant of delivery: No more than Five (5) fielders shall be permitted outside this fielding
restriction area throughout the innings. For the sake of clarity, it should be noted that this

38 – RUN OUT

*38.3 - Non-striker leaving his ground early

If the non-striker is out of his ground from the moment the ball comes into play to the instant
when the bowler would normally have been expected to release the ball, the bowler is
permitted to attempt to run him out. Whether the attempt is successful or not, the ball shall not
count as one in the over. If the bowler fails in an attempt to run out the non-striker, the umpire
shall call and signal Dead ball as soon as possible.

(Accidental run outs are not allowed).

SECTION C

*New BCCI Playing Conditions (incorporating MCC laws of cricket 2017- 3rd edition 2022) to be
implemented from the VCA season 2023-24 are as follows :

1) The In-Match over rate penalty will be applicable to One Day matches as well wherein the
fielding side is permitted to keep only a maximum of 4 fielders outside the fielding restriction
area if they are not in a position to bowl the first ball of the final or penultimate over as
appropriate, by the scheduled or rescheduled cessation time for the innings.(Refer to Section B)

2) In case of a tied match, Super over/s will now be played in One Day matches as well to
determine the winner.
3)If the striker is dismissed obstructing the field where the obstruction or distraction prevents
the striker being out caught then the Not out batsman shall return to his original end.

4) The following changes are made in the dead ball clause:

A) Where either umpire is required to call and signal Dead ball under 20.4.2.1 to 20.4.2.14, the
ball will be considered to be dead at the instant of the incident causing the ball to become dead.
However, where the Law specifically provides for the call to be delayed, so as not to
disadvantage the non-offending side, under Law 34.4 (Runs permitted from the ball lawfully
struck more than once), Law 41.2.1 (Unfair actions) the ball will be considered to be dead at the
point of the call.

B) Now either umpire shall call and signal dead ball in the below cases:

o If the bowler throws the ball towards the striker’s end before entering his delivery stride.
(Earlier it used to be a No ball).
o If he considers that either side has been disadvantaged by a person, animal or other
object within the field of play. However, if both umpires consider the ball would have
reached the boundary regardless of the intervention, the boundary should stand.
o If the striker attempts to play the ball and no part of his bat or person, whether
grounded or raised, remains within the pitch.

5)If the bowler bowls a ball so wide of the wickets that the striker would need to leave the pitch
completely to play the ball then the umpire shall call and signal No ball and immediately call and
signal Dead ball. (Refer to Section B).

6) New below clause added

• Striker’s right to play the ball

The striker has a right to play the ball, or to make a legitimate second strike, after it has been
delivered, without interference from the wicket-keeper or any other fielder (see clause 27.5
– Restrictions on actions of wicket-keeper and clause 27.6 – Interference with wicketkeeper
by striker).

However, the striker may only attempt to play the ball if some of his/her bat or person,
whether grounded or raised, remains within the pitch, as defined in clause 6.1 (Area of
pitch). Should no part of the striker’s bat or person remain within the pitch, whilst the striker
is playing the ball, either umpire shall immediately call and signal Dead ball.

7) In the event of unfair movement by the wicket keeper (clause 27.4 ) or any other fielder
(clause 28.6) the umpire shall award 5 penalty runs to the batting side in addition to the
immediate dead ball call and signal.

8) After the fall of a wicket or the retirement of a batsman, the incoming batsman must, unless
Time has been called, be ready to receive the ball or for the other batsman to be ready to
receive the next ball within 2 minutes of the dismissal or retirement. If this requirement is not
met, the incoming batsman will be out, Timed out.
