Two warnings will result in a five-run penalty to the batting side. If saliva is applied to the ball, the umpires will be instructed to clean it before play recommences, although no details were provided as to how that would be done. Other interim measures ratified by the ICC include replacing a player displaying COVID-19 symptoms during a Test match. Any replacement must be like-for-like switch and approved by the match referee. Replacements will only be allowed in test matches and not be applicable to ODIs and T20Is.
With experienced overseas umpires unable to stand in the forthcoming series between England and West Indies, teams will be allowed one extra unsuccessful DRS review in each innings, up from the usual two to three. “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 said. Code of conduct breaches will be partly overseen by a remote neutral match referee in liaison with the actual match referee via a video link.
