It is noteworthy that for some time, the ICC’s Suggestion Committee had been demanding changes in many rules related to cricket from the Apex Cricket Board. So now these new recommendations have been accepted, after which a major change has been made in the rules related to appeal of stumping by the fielding team. After this rule, it is believed that an attempt has been made to crack down on the fielding teams. Because this rule has been misused by the fielding team in the past. ICC changed this rule Let us tell you that ICC has now made a major change in a rule related to stumping appeal. According to the new rule, if a fielding team appeals for stumping, now the third umpire will check only the stump out. Earlier, there was a provision in the rule that if the fielding appeals stumping, then in addition to stumping, the third umpire would check the caught behind (caught out behind the wicket). After the new rule, now the third umpire will check only stumping. If the fielding team feels that a player is out behind the wicket, then it will have to use review. On the other hand, after this new rule, those teams will be able to crack down on those teams who were taking advantage of caught behind by continuously stumping out after the review is over.

He believes that when Virat was the captain, the team was doing well in Test cricket for 2-3 years. K Srikanth called India an overrated team in Test and T-20. Srikanth said on his YouTube channel, “We are overrated in Test cricket. I think it was the 2-3 year phase…when Virat Kohli was the captain of the team, we were excellent. We dominated in England, we fought hard in South Africa, we won in Australia. We had a good phase for 2-4 years.” Srikanth further said, ‘We have to forget the ICC rankings. We’re always number 1-2, 1-2. It is a mix of overrated cricketers and cricketers who have not performed to their potential. Or some players like Kuldeep (Yadav) who have not got enough opportunities. If you want to be the best team, you must be able to become a giant on home grounds. This is what we did when Rishabh Pant was firing. Talking about India’s performance in limited overs cricket, the former cricketer said that ‘India is more overrated in T20 cricket. ODI cricket, we are a great team. What happens in the semi-finals and finals in ODI is a one-time match. It is a factor of luck, a lot depends on luck in these matches.
