“That is for the franchisees to decide. The stars are now their own. We have given some instructions to the teams. But it is up to the respective franchisees to decide. More importantly, it is up to the players to decide. They are all adults. Players may take a break from a match or two if they feel the workload is increasing. But it is doubtful that it will happen,” said Rohit Sharma.

From the coming IPL season, announce the first eleven only following the toss. 5 substitute fielders should be announced along with the first eleven players. Until last season, before the coin was spun, the two captains had exchanged final XIs. This is the end of this routine.
The impact player rule is being introduced in the IPL from the coming season. Therefore, this move will help to announce the team considering the nature of the pitch and the toss. An impact player, if required, should be selected from among the five substitute fielders.
