White bails replace black for rest of NatWest Series
Media Release
July 9, 2002
The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has confirmed that white bails (instead of black) will be used on the normal black stumps for the remaining three matches of the NatWest Series.
Discussions between the ECB, the umpires and match referee resulted in the change of colour to assist the umpires in their decision-making for run-outs and stumpings.
In a further development, it is confirmed that three individuals who encroached on to the playing surface during the npower Test Match at Edgbaston earlier this season have all been successfully prosecuted. As a result they all now have a criminal record and their DNA profile has been added to the national database.
