Laws of Cricket

The Laws of Cricket

The game of Cricket has been governed by a series of Codes of Law for over 250 years. These Codes have been subject to additions and alterations recommended by the governing authorities of the time. Since its formation in 1787, the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) has been recognised as the sole authority for drawing up the Code and for all subsequent amendments. The Club also holds the World copyright.

This latest version, The Laws of Cricket (2000 Code 4th Edition - 2010) includes several necessary amendments arising from experience and practical application of the Code around the world since October, 2000.

ICC Europe in partnership with the MCC and select Member Country Boards has now translated these laws into a number of European languages. These are free to download.
