Q: Rule changes.
1. I have never understood the rule for LBW where the ball must hit the bat in line with the off stump. In most instances we see these days with the DRS the ball is hitting somewhere between middle or clipping leg and hitting off rarely happens due to the angles involved. Surely if the bowler has done enough to beat the bat and the ball is hitting the stumps then it’s out. Pitching outside leg is still not out
2. In T20 get rid of the maximum number of overs and have a simple rule stating five bowlers must bowl. End of story and would make the final overs potentially a lot more exciting where runs must be made against the best bowlers and makes captain decisions and strategy more important . Same for 50 over games where fifth bowler only has to bowl four minimum and no maximum
3. Allow outfield catches where the starting position of the fielder is inside the boundary. We should be encouraging the spectacular catches we are now seeing that finish outside the boundary.
