Few New Rules for IPL 2022: Before the IPL 2022, which is going to start from 26 March, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has issued some new rules. These new rules include the rules from the playing XI of the teams to the DRS. The BCCI on Monday issued new rules for the 15th season of the league. The most prominent of these can be changes in the team’s playing XI after a case of corona comes to the fore in a team.
If the team is unable to prepare the playing XI that match will be rescheduled later. If even later the match is not possible, then the matter will be referred to the technical committee. Also during the league there will be two DRS in each innings. In the first match of IPL 2022, defending champion Chennai Super Kings will face two-time champion Kolkata Knight Riders on 26 March.

Cricbuzz was quoted as saying by BCCI, “The Board at its discretion will try to reschedule the match at a later stage.” If this is not possible, then the matter will be referred to the IPL Technical Committee. The decision of the IPL Technical Committee is final, which will have to be accepted by all. This is the same as the previous rule, only one change has been made. The previous rule stated that the board would try to reschedule the match at a later time. If this is not possible, then the affected franchise will be considered as the loser and its opponent will be given two points.
The second most important change in IPL 2022 is about DRS. According to the new rule, according to the BCCI, the number of DRS in each innings has been increased from one to two. The BCCI has taken this decision in support of a recent suggestion by the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) that the new batsman has to come on strike, even if the batsman is in the middle of the crease during the catch.
