With the new year, the ICC (International Cricket Council) has reportedly come forward with some rule modifications pertaining to the umpire’s review for a stumping. The rule has been exploited by players for quite some time now, and the rule modification will now only focus on side-on replays and will no longer assess the caught-behind scenario. 

A stumping saw the team get away without using a review for caught behind, but with the implementation of the new rule, the same will not be a possibility anymore.
