BCCI is in action mode after the poor performance of the Indian team. He has taken strict steps to bring the team back on track after recovering from the defeat. Recently the board had a meeting with Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar, Head Coach Gautam Gambhir and Captain Rohit Sharma. During this period many issues were discussed. Now the board has implemented 10 strict rules for the players. Also it has been said in simple words that if anyone violates its guidelines then he will have to be prepared for strict punishment.
10 types of guidelines have been given in the new guidelines of BCCI. If any player does not follow these and breaks discipline then the consequences can be very bad. The player's career may even be ruined. Even if this does not happen, it is certain that his 2 to 3 years will be wasted. Recent examples of this are Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer. The contracts of both were snatched away. Whereas Kishan has been out of the team for about 14 months. Iyer also returned to the team after several months.
The board has said that if any player does not comply then it will be free to take disciplinary action against him. Under this, the Indian Board has made provisions like suspension. As punishment, players' match fees or contract fees may be deducted. Apart from this, his contract can also be cancelled. At the same time, if BCCI feels that the player has made a big mistake, then it can ban him from participating in any other tournament including IPL. Obviously if this happens then it will be difficult to get selected in the team. Even if there is a comeback, it may take a lot of time.
Under the new rules of the Indian Cricket Board, it will be mandatory for every player to play domestic cricket for selection in the team. He will be exempted from this only in case of any exception and for this he will also have to give a valid reason. Apart from this, it has been made mandatory for all the players to travel together all the time, from matches to practice sessions. A limit has also been set on luggage during the series. At the same time, a ban has been imposed on taking personal staff and shooting ads during the series. The board has also made rules regarding the family.
