Corona introduced new rules of cricket, depriving players of significant joy on the field

The International Cricket Council (ICC) has issued guidelines for the revival of cricket after the corona virus, under which players will not be able to hug or shake hands to celebrate any success on the field, even on the high five. The 16-page ICC Back to Cricket Guidelines issued by the International Cricket Council (ICC) on Friday confirmed that bowlers will not be able to use saliva to polish the ball.

According to ICC documents, the players will keep their distance from each other on the field, which will not allow any celebration that involves body contact, as well as players will use their equipment separately and including a water bottle. They will not give anything to each other. Bowlers on the field will not give any of their belongings like sweaters, sunglasses, jumpers, caps etc. to the umpires, each player will be responsible for keeping his belongings.

Bowlers have also been instructed to refrain from touching their faces after using the ball and to use hand centrifuges repeatedly, with umpires wearing gloves to touch the ball. A distance of at least one and a half meters in between has also been directed.

The ICC says the guidelines are in line with the guidelines of its Medical Advisory Board, which recommends appointing a Chief Medical Officer with each team to provide a healthy environment for players. Another point is that the teams will be tested for corona virus before international competitions and the players will spend at least 14 days in quarantine. It is recommended to travel as well as separate rooms for players and the team to stay on the same floor.
