    Swing is essential for bowlers, feels Starc

    "We don't want to lose that or make it less even, so there needs to be something in place to keep that ball swinging. Otherwise people aren't going to be watching it and kids aren't going to want to be bowlers," Starc told reporters.

    'No saliva' rule will be an interim solution

    ICC Cricket Committee chairman Anil Kumble, on Sunday, revealed that recommendation to ban saliva usage is only an interim measure to safeguard players' health. He added the rule will be revoked, once the pandemic is over. Kumble admitted the committee wanted to eliminate any such substance from the game. "We've been very focused on eliminating any external substances coming into the game," he said.

    Starc suggests to tweak ball-tampering rules

    Starc said the ground staff should produce balanced wickets and also advocated the tweak in ball-tampering rules. "It's an unusual time and if they're going to remove saliva shining for a portion of time they, need to think of something else for that portion as well," he said. "(Either) with the wickets not being as flat or at least considering this shining wax."
