Default ICC ponders lbw change for switch hits

Quote:
The ICC is to review the playing condition regarding lbw decisions in international cricket in response to the emergence of the switch hit.



ESPNcricinfo understands that the ICC cricket committee, a group that includes Ian Bishop, Kumar Sangakkara and Mark Taylor, is to consider amending the playing condition whereby a batsman attempting to play the shot cannot be given out lbw if the ball has pitched outside the leg stump.


The news, first mentioned in passing in The Guardian, will mean that any right-handed batsman who switches his stance or grip to effectively play as a left-hander, will be able to be given out even if the ball had pitched outside the leg stump and vice-versa. Bowlers will also be allowed more leeway as regards leg side wides in limited-overs cricket. The cricket committee meets in Dubai later this month.

Very good and timely initiative by ICC. Things were going out of control during Eng vs SL series when KP repeatedly played 'Switch Shot' and SL players kept complaining against it.
