n/a
1801-05-15
In 1801 the Marylebone Cricket Club, founded only fourteen years earlier, formally revised and republished the Laws of Cricket in their entirety. The new code clarified the rules on bat dimensions, pitch length, no-balls and the duties of umpires. It established the MCC's authority over the laws of the game — an authority the club has retained without serious challenge for 225 years.
