If a team is able to take the field:We recommend that the waiting captain inform the umpire about the other team being late and ask him to implement this punctuality rule. The umpire should implement the rule as strictly as possible. To implement the rule, the umpire should make sure that 1 team is ready and the other team is not ready to take the field and accordingly penalize the team being late. The umpires present after considering the situations would take the decision. Once the umpires have taken a decision, the team captains should make sure that they follow it gracefully. If a captain thinks that the umpire is not implementing the rule properly, the captain should immediately consult the Umpiring and Appeals committee and request the committee to discuss the scenario with the umpire. If the captain is not able to get hold of the Umpiring and Appeals committee, then they can contact any organizer that they can get hold off.
