ICC Approves COVID-19 Substitutes, Bans Use of Saliva; Additional DRS Review in Test Cricket
The ICC on Tuesday approved COVID-19
replacements in Test cricket, banned the use of saliva to shine the ball and
re-introduced non-neutral umpires for bilateral series as part of its interim
playing regulations to tackle the threat posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. The
announcement has come on the day the same day the West Indies squad arrived in
England for a three-Test series behind closed doors.
In the five new regulations, recommended by
the Anil Kumble-chaired Cricket Committee, and ratified by the Chief Executives
Committee (CEC), the teams will also be allowed an additional DRS call as home
umpires will now be officiating in bilateral Test series.
Also, a 32-inch additional logo would be
permitted on the players’ jerseys, which will help teams make commercial gains
as Boards battle the pandemic’s financial blow.
“Teams will be allowed to replace players
displaying symptoms of COVID-19 during a Test match. In line with concussion
replacements, the Match Referee will approve the nearest like-for-like
replacement,” the ICC stated in a press release.
“However, the regulation for COVID-19
replacements will not be applicable in ODIs and T20Is,” it added.
The CEC predictably ratified the ban on use
of saliva, which is considered to be a transmitter of novel coronavirus unlike
sweat which will still be allowed to shine the ball. Repeated violation of the
ban would at first invite a warning before a five-run penalty is imposed.
“Players will not be permitted to use
saliva to shine the ball. If a player does apply saliva to the ball, the
umpires will manage the situation with some leniency during an initial period
of adjustment for the players, but subsequent instances will result in the team
receiving a warning,” the ICC said.
“A team can be issued up to two warnings
per innings but repeated use of saliva on the ball will result in a 5-run
penalty to the batting side. Whenever saliva is applied to the ball, the umpires
will be instructed to clean the ball before play recommences,” the parent body
stated.
The introduction of two home team umpires
for bilaterals after nearly two decades is purely due to the logistical
challenges of travelling given the flight restrictions in place globally.
“The requirement to appoint neutral match
officials will be temporarily removed from the playing conditions for all
international formats owing to the current logistical challenges with
international travel.
“The ICC will be able to appoint locally
based match officials from the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Officials and
the Emirates ICC International Panel of Match Officials,” the ICC said.
This means India’s C Shamshuddin, Anil
Chaudhary and Nitin Menon will be seen officiating during the home series
against England next year with Javagal Srinath being the match referee.
Due to the lack of experience of a lot of
these umpires, who are not a part of the ICC Elite Panel, an additional DRS
review has been allotted to the teams in each innings.
“…keeping in mind that there may be less
experienced umpires on duty at times. This will increase the number of
unsuccessful appeals per innings for each team to three for Tests and two for
the white-ball formats.”
The ICC Cricket Operations team will also
support local match referees when processing code of conduct breaches, and a
neutral Elite Panel match referee will conduct any hearing remotely via video
link.
The ICC also relaxed the apparel rules by
allowing a logo on the chest of Test match jersey.
“A logo, not exceeding 32 square inches in
size, may be placed on the chest of the Test match shirt and sweater in
addition to the three other logos allowed as per regulations. As of now, logos
on chests are only allowed in ODIs and T20Is.”

Denying Tendulkar 100th Ton Made Umpire Rod Tucker and I Get Death Threats: Tim Bresnan
Tim Bresnan said that he umpire Rod Tucker
received death threats for wrongly depriving Sachin Tendulkar the opportunity
to bring up his 100th Century
Former Indian cricket captain Sachin
Tendulkar is arguably the greatest batsman to have played the sport. The Master
Blaster is widely regarded as the ‘God of Cricket’. Tendulkar, who is the
highest run-scorer in Tests as well as ODIs, was known for his impeccable
batting technique. Sachin Tendulkar has created a plethora of records in his
glorious 24-year career. One of the most coveted record that the ‘Master
Blaster’ owns is scoring 100 international hundreds.
However, it wasn’t an easy ride for
Tendulkar after scoring his 99th hundred during the 2011 World Cup game against
South Africa. After that century, Tendulkar touched the 90-run mark only once
in 2011. It seemed like Tendulkar was going to create history by scoring the
100th ton of his international career in a Test match against England. However,
to everyone’s disappointment, he was trapped in front of the wicket by England
all-rounder Tim Bresnan as umpire Rod Tucker adjudged him out on 91 and broke a
billion hearts.
Recalling the moment, Bresnan said that he
and umpire Rod Tucker received death threats for depriving Tendulkar the
opportunity to bring up his 100th international ton. While speaking on the Yorkshire
Cricket: Covers Off podcast, Bresnan said that Tendulkar was on 99
international hundreds and in that series, there were no referrals because the
BCCI didn’t want them. It was at The Oval in the last Test of the 2011 series
in England. He added that the ball was probably missing leg anyway and umpire
Rod Tucker adjudged it out.
Bresnan revealed that he got death threats
on Twitter and umpire Tucker had people writing to him to his home address.
Bresnan also revealed that Tucker received proper death threats and many fans
wrote to him that the ball was missing the leg stump. He further said that the
situation arose to such an extent that Tucker had to get police protection.
Tendulkar finally ended his dry spell in
the 2012 Asia Cup match against Bangladesh and reached the milestone of scoring
100 tons in international cricket. It eventually turned out to be Tendulkar’s
penultimate ODI appearance as he retired from white-ball cricket later that
year. Tendulkar announced his retirement from international cricket in October
2013 and played his final Test against West Indies in Mumbai a month later.
