The cricket authority of West Indies is set to introduce a new red-card-like system in Caribbean Premier League (CPL) ahead of the upcoming edition for slow over rates.

According to the new rule, if the fielding side falls behind the specified over rate at the commencement of the 20th over of an innings, a player will be required to leave the field.

The 17th over must conclude within 72 minutes and 15 seconds, the 18th over within 76 minutes and 30 seconds, the 19th over within 80 minutes and 45 seconds, and the final over within 85 minutes.
