League Notes: England & Wales Cricket Board To Introduce Law Changes Early

The England & Wales Cricket Board is "set to announce new playing regulations for the coming season that include the early introduction of some law changes" recently approved by the Marylebone Cricket Club cricket committee. MCC "approved a number of changes to the laws of the game which will be introduced on October 1." However, the ECB sets the playing regulations for all English domestic competitions and it "decided to introduce some of the new laws six months early." From the start of this season, the laws "will allow batsmen to be caught off a fielder's helmet" (LONDON TIMES, 3/20).

Pakistan's Federal Investigation Agency began "interrogating" the cricketers accused of spot-fixing on Monday. It is "likely to book the suspects under its anti-corruption laws." The FIA's cyber crime wing in Lahore, headed by Deputy Dir Shahid Hasan, interrogated Mohammad Irfan. The other three -- Sharjeel Khan, Khalid Latif and Shahzaib Hassan -- will appear on Tuesday before the FIA (DAWN, 3/20).
