    IPL 2025: On-field Bat Checks To Become A Routine Affair After Sunday’s Double-header

    T20I Playing Conditions: During the recent IPL 2025 double header on Sunday, something interesting happened. On-field umpires brought out a white triangle-shaped plastic gauge and passed the bats of Shimron Hetmyer, Phil Salt and Hardik Pandya through it during the games in Jaipur and New Delhi.

    With the random on-field check of bats making three appearances in a day, it is understood that this checking is going to become a routine affair for the remainder of the tournament, with an aim to maintain fairness in the matches.

    To be fair, the International Cricket Council (ICC) had put in a protocol for umpires to be issued a bat gauge in 2017, which they can use to check a bat’s legality in international cricket matches.
