Artificial pitches What happens if the Return creases are not painted? While the popping crease and the bowling crease will always be permanently painted, regulations or local custom should require either. . . when bowling, the bowler must have one foot, wholly on the pitch, or the bowler must have his front foot, wholly on the pitch In the absence of any such regulation, it is imperative that captains and umpires agree, before the toss what should apply Regulations may also include the type of footwear bowler’s must use, perhaps prohibiting sprigs Umpires must be familiar with all Regulations and local customs
