The IPL 2023 countdown has started. The competition will begin on March 31. The two-month tournament’s rules have undergone a number of tweaks that will make the game even more thrilling. Here, we discuss the IPL’s new rules for 2023.
The skipper will have two separate team sheets in IPL 2023 and will disclose his starting lineup after winning the toss. One of the important IPL rule adjustments is this one. This would enable clubs to select their strongest playing 11 whether they want to bowl first or bat first, according to an internal note from the IPL. In addition, after the toss, teams will have the opportunity to select an impact player.
According to news reports, “At the moment, the captains must communicate their starting 11 to one another before the toss. This task will now be completed immediately following the toss in order to assist the sides in selecting the best starting 11 for either batting first or bowling first. It will aid teams in selecting impact players.
For the same reason, this regulation has been implemented in the IPL. Additionally, this will lessen the impact of dew in India. In most Indian stadiums, the toss has a significant impact, making it simpler for the side chasing the aim to prevail. For the final time in 2019, each IPL team played half of their games at home and the other half at the opponent’s stadium. This season, the teams that won the toss claimed victory in 34 of the 60 games, while the teams that lost the toss claimed victory in 23 of the games. (Excludes super over and abandoned matches)
What are the benefits Of New IPL Rules?
The side that wins the toss will lose the game after the new IPL rules are made public. No team will be required to make judgments based on the pitch and ground, either. As an illustration, suppose a side that wants to bat and defend a target on a spin-friendly pitch is compelled to bowl first. Now, in such a scenario, any side can add an extra spinner to the starting playing 11, and in the second innings, the batsman can be added to the squad as an impact player instead of a bowler. This will make it easier to pursue the target.
New other Rules of IPL 2023
