Bad light stops Australia-South Africa Durban Test despite ICC rule changes

Original: sa

The Durban Test between Australia and South Africa was thwarted by bad light, ending play despite new ICC regulations introduced to reduce stoppages. The BBC's report has drawn attention because the rule changes were meant to keep matches going in fading light, yet the Test still could not continue. Cricket fans are discussing whether the governing body's adjustments have actually solved the problem.

Why now: A Test match was stopped by bad light despite the ICC's recent rule changes designed to prevent exactly that.
