Smart glasses have a lot of different groups up in arms. Privacy advocates are worried about the potential use of facial recognition . Courts are concerned about the potential for subverting the judicial process . Cruise ships are worried about glassholes . And now pro sports are also drawing a line.

As reported by The Indian Express , an advisory body for the Indian Premier League—the country’s most popular cricket league—has now expressly warned against the use of smart eyewear by both players and staff when they’re in “restricted match-day areas.” The gadgets, the board says, are prohibited by previous bans against communication devices in restricted areas, including the field.

The reason, it seems, has more to do with match-fixing/betting than players gaining a competitive advantage, with “a source” telling The Indian Express that the “latest crackdown underlines the league’s attempt to stay ahead of evolving integrity risks during one of world cricket’s most commercially significant tournaments.”
