It appears that the Indian cricket board (BCCI) has sought input from notable figures in the cricketing world—former Indian captain and coach Rahul Dravid, current coach Gautam Gambhir, and chairman of the selection committee Ajit Agarkar—regarding the Impact Player rule in the IPL.

The feedback from these influential individuals seems to be positive, as they have all given a tacit approval to the rule. This suggests that there is a consensus or at least a favourable view among these key stakeholders about implementing the Impact Player rule, which could potentially enhance the strategic aspects of the game.

The Impact Player rule allows teams to substitute a player during the match who can then make a significant impact, whether in terms of batting, bowling, or fielding. The approval from such esteemed cricketing figures indicates that this rule might be well-received and could continue to add an exciting new dimension to the IPL.

It is understood that some top IPL team members, including T20 World Cup-winning captain Rohit Sharma, have expressed strong reservations about the Impact Player rule. Their concerns centred around the idea that this rule might diminish the advantage that all-rounders provide.

All-rounders are valued for their ability to contribute significantly in multiple aspects of the game, such as batting, bowling, and fielding. The Impact Player rule, which allows for a substitution during the match, could potentially reduce the strategic value of having an all-rounder in the squad.

These concerns highlight the ongoing debate about how the rule could affect team strategies and the role of all-rounders in the game. As the rule is further discussed and potentially implemented, it will be important to consider these perspectives to ensure that the competition remains balanced and fair.

The Impact Player rule has indeed been in effect for the last two IPL seasons, and it has brought about significant changes in team strategies. The rule allows teams to substitute a player during a match who can have a substantial impact in a specific role, which has led to some unintended consequences.

Sources suggest that the Impact Player rule might have been reconsidered or even discarded if India had not won the T20 World Cup. The success of the Indian team in the tournament could have influenced the decision to retain the rule, as it may be viewed as a contributing factor to their performance or as a successful innovation in the format.
