Team India's performance on the Australia tour was very poor. Due to which BCCI has started tightening restrictions on Indian players, so that the game can improve. BCCI has recently made some new rules for the players, which include not being with the family for the entire tour. It is believed that some players of Team India are against this rule. At the same time, now England's white-ball captain Jos Buttler has also called this rule wrong. He has stressed the importance of allowing players to accompany their families during international tours.
In the press conference before the first T20 match, Butler emphasized that in the modern era, the presence of family on tour is extremely beneficial. He said that having the players with their wives and children gives them emotional strength, which helps in improving their mental health during the busy schedule.
Jos Buttler said, 'I think it is important. We live in an age now, which is a very modern world, and I think it's great to take families with you on tour and try to enjoy it. Players spend a long time away from home, and I think after Corona virus has exposed all this, I don't think it affects cricket too much.
According to BCCI rules, if a player stays on a foreign tour for 45 days, he can keep his family with him for two weeks. At the same time, for short tours this time will be only 7 days. At the same time, players will be able to travel only with the team for matches and practice sessions. If for some reason a player is traveling with his family, then permission will have to be taken from coach Gautam Gambhir and selector Ajit Agarkar.
Chief selector Ajit Agarkar and Rohit Sharma held a press conference during the announcement of the team for the Champions Trophy. During this, Rohit was caught talking to Agarkar on this issue on the mic. Before the press conference, Rohit had said, I will have to sit for one more hour for a day. After the press conference we have to discuss family rules, all the players are calling me. Let us tell you, when Rohit said this, he did not know that the mic was on and everyone was listening to his conversation.
