The ICC announced that their prestigious ODI Super League will kick off with the England- Ireland three-match series on July 30. The league is of utmost importance as it will determine the qualification for the World Cup 2023 in India.

The league will see many innovations being applied for the full. It includes increasing the DRS review numbers for each team per innings. Usually, each team gets one review per innings in ODIs, but in the matches played under the Super League banner, each team will get two DRS reviews per innings, confirmed Geoff Allardice, the ICC's general manager cricket operations.

This rule change is an interim change to playing conditions brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic and is due to be reviewed every three months.

ICC ODI Super League to see the TV umpires making front-foot no-ball calls

"Each format got one extra review. That was the plan originally that it was an interim measure. We will see how it plays out, is it creating extra delays in the game or is allowing us to get the right decision more often. I think it's one that will have more debate as we get to the end of the interim period," ESPNCricinfo quoted Allardice as saying.

The new rules will also apply for T20I matches as well. Apart from this, the TV umpires will judge the front foot no-ball calls relieving the on-filed umpires to focus on doing their job without distractions.

"It is something that will be used between Ireland and England and for the series to be played. Certainly, there is the importance of the free hit in white-ball cricket, and getting no-balls called accurately. That is considered to be an important feature. The Cricket Committee has recommended that and it's in the playing conditions for the World Cup Super League," Allardice said.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) had previously used the technology to call the front-foot no-balls last year in the series between India and West Indies.
