The bowlers have a good news as the umpires call ruling in the decision review system(DRS) for leg before wicket dismissal has been amended following the ICC annual conference.

The new rule requires only 50% of the ball to strike the outer half of the off-stump or leg-stump for the TV umpires decision to come into play .
The old rule,on the other hand , requires 50% of the ball to strike the inside of off-stump or leg-stump for the purpose.

The change will come into effect on October 1 or according to an ICC release from the start of any series using DRS that commences just prior to this date.
