    1. An additional fielder will be allowed outside the fielding circle during the second or third Powerplays.


    2. If an ODI innings is reduced, the numbers of overs making up each of the three Powerplays shall be reduced proportionately.


    3. If a bowler bowls a front foot no-ball in an ODI, the following delivery will be deemed a free hit and the batsman cannot be dismissed by the bowler from that delivery. He can only be run out.

    4. There will be a mandatory change of the ball after 35 overs of each innings in an ODI; the replacement will be a clean used ball.

    Im delighted to see the last rule been brought in. It makes it fair on both team now.

    not a fan of the free hit AS extra delivery is bowled after the no ball anyway so not much loss

    When were these changes announced?

    Nothing too radical really, but not sure I'm a fan of the extra fielder outside the circle. Can't see why they'd want to change that one.

    I can see the free hit rule really hitting the minnow nations hard at the World Cup
