2.1 APPOINTMENT &
ATTENDANCE
Ground inspection (2)
Sightscreens - must be completely outside the boundary
If the sightscreens are placed within or partly within the field of play and cannot be moved back, the umpires should ensure that a rope or boards are placed in front the sightscreens causing them to be outside the field of play
Similarly, the boundary line may be redrawn in front of the sightscreen causing the same effect
The redrawn boundary should be sufficient to allow the sightscreens to be moved and still be outside the boundary
