In a bid to revive reverse swing the International Cricket Council ICC is all set for the introduction of using one ball per innings in ODIs replacing the current system where two balls are used from both ends.
While two balls will still be used in ODIs at the start of the innings till the 34th over the teams will only be permitted to use only one with the option of choosing one of the balls starting from the 35th over.
quotThere will be two new balls for overs 1 to 34. After over 34 is completed and prior to the start of over 35 the fielding team will choose one of the two balls to be used for overs 35 to 50. The chosen ball will be used at both ends for the remainder of the match unless it needs to be changed. In a match reduced to 25 overs or less per side before the first innings commences each team shall have only one new ball for its Inningsquot ICC stated in a statement.

quotA replacement ball at any time during the innings will be one of similar conditions to the ball that needs to be replaced. Note that the ball not used for overs 35 to 50 in the match will be added to the replacement ball supplyquot ICC further said.
