ECB's New Injury Rules: First Innings Only, No Sneaky Swaps

The England and Wales Cricket Board is shaking things up! Now, if a player gets hurt, teams can only swap them during the first innings, unless they're checking for injury. No sneaky fresh bowlers allowed! Replacements need to match skills, not just experience. This change comes after Lancashire tried to swap in a stronger batter. Fair play is the name of the game, folks!
