The ICC for the first time declared the using of technology to track the front-foot no-balls for all the matches on this tour. The third umpire will make a call for front-foot no-balls, and talk about this along with the on-field umpires. This is being applied as a trial to watch if it can be executed in the further matches of other tours.
