Temporary relaxation of 22 days reschedule rule in Premier League 2026 (Issued on 15/6/26)

In view of the weather conditions over the past few weeks, a significant number of matches have been postponed. Taking into account the green and bowlers availability, the League Panel has recommended temporarily relaxing the requirement that rescheduled matches be played within 22 days.

All postponed matches may now be rescheduled beyond the 22‑day limit, provided that they are completed before the fixture date of the second half of the season (29 August 2026).

If any match cannot be completed before 29 Aug 2026, both sides will be deducted four points and must then complete the match within 22 days.
