New Rules for Indian Cricket

1) Declaring the winner: If Pakistan bats first and scores x runs then 
the target for India will be revised to x/2. They need to score (x/2)+1 
runs to be declared winner. If India bats first then the number of overs 
for Pakistan will be reduced to 25. Even after these modifications India 
contrive to lose, they will be awarded psychological victory. 

2) Fielding restrictions: When India is fielding, as soon as any fielder 
touches the ball, it will be deemed as dead ball and Pakistan batsmen 
will only be allowed to complete that run. This modification is being 
done to eliminate time being wasted for overthrows etc. 

3) By popular demand from Indian players, a few additional coaches have 
been included in the touring party with immediate effect. They are, 
Batting coach : Ravi Shastri 
Bowling Coach(with experience in Sharjah conditions) : Chetan 
Sharma 
Fielding Coach : Ravi Shastri(Dual responsibility) 
TV Commercials Coach : Salman Khan 
Video Coach : Name will be announced later 

4) As the deadline to submit final 15 players for the 1999 World Cup is 
over, the result of the match on 18th April between 1983 Indian team and 
the current team will not have any bearing on the team going to England. 

Any other suggestions are welcome. We at the ICC would like to 
ascertain again our commitment to spread the game of cricket globally, from Mozambique to Maldives and from Turkmenistan to Tibet. 

Thanking You. 
Yours Sincerely, 
Jagmohan Dalmiya
