The International Cricket Council today released the updated version of the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern (DLS) System along with the new ICC Code of Conduct and ICC Playing Conditions. In finalising the updated version, the scoring patterns between ODI (final 20 overs) and T20 were analyzed, as were the scoring patterns between men’s and women’s international matches. As such, it has again been confirmed that a single version of the DLS System is compatible with all formats. These were approved by the ICC Board during the Dublin Annual Conference on 2 July. Match referees will now hear Level 1, 2 and 3 charges with a Judicial Commissioner only hearing Level 4 charges and appeals.
