Indian Premier League Season 16 is set to kick-off on March 31. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is set to introduce some massive rule changes in the Indian Premier League (IPL) from the 2023 edition onwards. BCCI made big changes in IPL 2023: change Playing XI after the toss.
Team captains in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 will walk in with two different team sheets before handing in their final Playing XI after the toss, reported ESPNcricinfo. One of the main changes from the previous season in the IPL’s playing rules will soon be communicated to the teams.
The adjustment would allow teams to select their best XIs based on whether they end up batting or bowling, with the appropriate impact player included, the IPL stated in an internal statement describing the numerous modifications to playing conditions.
“Currently the captains have to exchange the team lists before the toss. This has been changed to exchange of teams immediately post the toss, to enable teams to choose the best XI depending on whether they are batting or bowling first. It will also assist the teams to plan for the impact player,” ESPNcricinfo reported.
