 South African Rudi Koertzen, a member of the ICC's Elite Panel of umpires has appealed for a change in rule when it comes to a result not being possible on the last day of the test match.
He believes that the match should be called off at tea time on the final day if a result is not possible.
"There is nothing wrong if the ICC considers a change in laws that allows such Test matches to be called off at tea with the consent of both captains when a last-day result is not possible," Said the South African umpire.
Rudi also stressed on the point that both the captains had agreed for the match to be called off at tea time ,but the match refree Ranjan Madugalle did not support this decision told the umpires to carry on with the game untill the official rule is in effect viz. the match cannot be called off until 8 overs were left.
