Super Over in place for World Cup-2015 final once again


The ICC has reverted to using the Super Over  to determine a winner in case of a Tie in the  World Cup-2015 final, a playing condition that was in place for the 2011 final but had been scrapped in the lead up to the tournament in Australia and New Zealand.

At its board meeting in Dubai, the ICC also approved an amendment to its Code of Conduct application, providing relief to captains  who are carrying minor over-rate offences  leading into the World Cup.
.
All captains will enter the World Cup with a clean slate  and this application has been extended to include all ICC events in the future
.
"They will only be suspended from playing in an ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 match if over-rate offences are committed during the event," the ICC said.
.
"Any over rate 'strikes' incurred prior to the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 will be carried forward to the first bilateral series after the event."
.

The ICC  confirmed venues and dates for its events until 2019 as follows
.
World Twenty-20 Qualifier 2015 in Ireland and Scotland from July 6 for
26, 2015.
