Cancellation At the group stage of the competition, if points are level a bowl-out can be undertaken, in preference to the toss of a coin. At later stages if bad weather intervenes an alternative date may be arranged but if no agreement between the sides is reached then a bowl off shall be undertaken in preference to the toss of a coin. The bowl-out shall take place at three stumps – on the square, the outfield, or in the nets (if available), as agreed by the captains. Five players shall be nominated from each side, bowling in turn. If a definite result has still to be achieved after these five have bowled, “sudden death” shall apply with the remaining team members bowling in turn until a result is achieved. If things remain level, the above procedure shall be repeated until a winner emerges. A fully completed result sheet must be submitted as follows and the “cup-tied” rule will apply to the players named on the results sheet. 5. Players No player shall play for more than one team or club. If a club has two teams then the player must play for the team he is registered to. All players should be registered by July 1 st , in line with league rules. 6. Results The home team must complete the result on Play Cricket within 24 hours of the completion of the tie, which must be verified by the away team within 72 hours of the completion of the tie Fines shall apply for non-compliance. 7. Disputes Any disputes will be adjudicated by the Cup Secretary. If his decision does not give satisfaction, an appeal shall be made within 24 hours. The matter will then be dealt with by the League Chairman and/or other Committee members, whose decision shall be binding.
