England cricket, which is now hosting Pakistan, will play three T20Is and as many ODIs against Australia, starting on September 4. In addition to the ban on saliva, Cricket Australia also imposed limits on the use of sweat by condition on the pitch. Australia’s Mitchell Starc, however, remains unaffected by the limitations as he assumes that such new rules would not be as applicable in white-ball formats as Test cricket does. In addition, Starc is optimistic of Cricket Australia’s own ball-maintenance strategy, which won’t impact players too much.
