The players (Law 1)

LAW 1 CHANGES


The changes to Law 1 are relatively minor

There is a clarification that the match will continue for as long as possible after multiple players have been sent off under the new Law 42

It is clarified that any person associated with the team may deputise for the captain if he is absent for the nomination of the players. This means that a manager, a coach or another player, for example, can provide the team sheet to the umpires before the toss

However, only a nominated player may deputise for the absent captain at the toss
