That's a good change. It was ridiculous to call "dead ball" when a bowler broke the wicket in his delivery stride because sometimes the batsman was penalised.
I don't understand change number 2. Why would they change the rules regarding batting with a runner if batsmen are no longer allowed runners?

www.espncricinfo.com/ci-icc/content/story/520924.html
The ICC's executive board has ratified the recommendations of the ICC Chief Executives' Committee :
including the abolition of runners,
the usage of new balls from each end in one-dayers,
and regulation of when the batting and bowling Powerplays can be taken.
In addition to approving the rule changes to ODIs ....................

Nope. If you read the changes in the grey square, it clearly states: "No runners in international cricket". So maybe this new rule applies to domestic cricket.

- Batsmen can be dismissed obstructing the field if they change their course while running to prevent a run-out chance
- Bowlers will be allowed to run out a non-striker backing up un

No I'm not, though a career counsellor once told me to study law. Aside from the fact that I would never feel comfortable trying to help someone get away with a crime they were guilty of, I wouldn't have the confidence to argue their case in a court either. It's easy to say what I believe online, in real life not so much.
I looked for this because I was sure I hadn't seen any runners in test cricket lately.
