Johannesburg, Mar 02: The International Cricket Council (ICC) event technical committee yesterday quashed a Kenyan plea seeking to penalise New Zealand in terms of its net run rate. The technical committee unanimously ruled that the playing conditions cannot be altered retrospectively, to specifically address the deemed result of the cancelled game. The Kenyan board had termed the forfeited match as a lost opportunity for Kenya to improve its run rate. The Sri Lankan board also sought clarifcation from the ICC on the qualification criteria for the Super Six stage, in the event of more than two teams finishing the group stage matches on equal points.
