Ranji tournament will be held in two phases
The current Ranji season will be held in two phases. Vijay Hazare Trophy and Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy matches will be played between these phases. The reason for conducting Ranji season in two seasons is to reduce the workload of the players. This will save players from playing long format matches continuously. The advantage of this format is also being said that it reduces the chances of players getting injured.
2 new rules will be seen in Ranji Trophy
The Indian Cricket Board has changed many rules for the domestic season. There is also a rule to retire between innings. Now the batsman will get the facility to retire in the middle of the innings only if he gets injured. If for any other reason the batsman leaves the field in the middle of the innings, he will be considered out. Similarly, now there will be no penalty for applying saliva on the ball. By doing this the ball will also be changed.
