The T20 World Cup 2022 begins on October 16 and the International Cricket Council (ICC) will be introducing several new rules in the tournament. The governing body of the sport in the world modifies rules in the sport almost regularly, something that will again be seen in the World Cup.

The T20 World Cup 2022 will have 16 participating nations and players will need to obey the modified rules. Let’s take a look at five modified rules that will be introduced in the T20 World Cup 2022.

Mankading

This particular rule has received mixed reactions from fans all over the world recently, following India’s Deepti Sharma’s run-out of England’s Charlie Dean. While Sharma’s mankading was met with stark criticism from England fans, it will not be debatable in the T20 World Cup 2022, as the ICC has made it clear that Mankading will be considered run-out.

In a recent decision, the ICC moved Mankading from ‘unfair play’ section to ‘run-out’ section on its website.

Caught out rules

The ICC has mandated that during the T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia, batters will not be able to switch strikes with their partners during a caught-out dismissal. The batter who will be dismissed with a similar out will be replaced with the new batter who comes on the crease.

Slow over rate

A similar rule was observed in the Asia Cup in the UAE earlier this year, especially in the first match between India and Pakistan. However, this rule has not been used in many matches in 2022 but will be seen in the T20 World Cup in Australia.

Teams that are found violating the slow-over rule will be punished by fielding penalties. The fielding penalty will entail placing an extra player inside the circle for the remainder of the death overs.

Deliveries

The ICC has mandated that for a batter to hit a ball outside the playing area or pitch, he will need to have a part of his body or bat inside the pitch. If the umpires find batters not complying with the rule, the ball will become a dead ball.

For the bowling team, the ball will also be a no-ball, resulting in a free hit to the batting team.

Fielders’ movements

According to the ICC, if fielders are found moving intentionally or unfairly, causing distractions to the batter during the run-up of the bowler, the ball will be called dead and five runs will be allotted to the batting team.
