to appear fully kitted with right protective equipment. (This rule is particularly
important for grounds like Elf Oval and Sachvalay Gym, Oval where the
ground custodians – Vengsarkar Academy and Sachvalay Sports Club have
laid down the stricture in order to avoid conflicts with the Oval Residents

j). Each team will have 85 minutes to complete their scheduled quota of 20
overs. In case the bowling side does not begin its 20th over before the
completion of the 85th minute the umpire may exercise his authority to award
12 extra penalty runs to the batting side over for every over bowled short
(teams must note that umpires will consider only their own time as well as any
allowances made for stoppage of play during normal course of the game, to
decide if a team is in default. Such decision if applicable will be
communicated at the end of the innings only – appeals for time penalties from
either team will not be entertained). This rule will be applicable in all innings
and the decision will be at the sole discretion of the umpires. The umpires will
inform/forewarn the captain of the bowling side at the drinks break if they feel

them in the league stage would be considered to decide higher v/s lower
