Publication: January 17, 2025

The Indian Cricket Committee (BCCI) has introduced comprehensive guidelines aimed at improving professionalism, discipline and operation efficiency within the Indian men’s cricket team. In order to solve the problems that appeared during the recent tour, this policy fosters unification, sets the priority of domestic crickets, and sets a strong precedent so that the team can focus on that promise.


Main highlights of policy


1. Essential participation in domestic crickets

In order to maintain a relationship with India’s grassroots cricket ecosystem, the player must participate in the domestic economy and maintain the eligibility to sign a national selection and central contract. This measurement not only supports the development of talent, but also inspires new cricket players to play with the best experts. Exceptions are made only in special situations through pre -approval.


2. Team travel discipline

All players now have to travel and practice with the team for the game. A separate travel contract with the family is discouraged and emphasizes team cohesion and discipline. The deviation with this guideline must be approved by the supervisory and chairman of the selection committee.


3. Restrictions on individual employees

The crackdown on players who bring private employees such as a hairdresser, chef, or nannies aims to simplify logistics and focus on team operations. Only employees explicitly approved by BCCI are allowed to ensure professional and unpleasant environments.



4. New family travel policy

For overseas tours that last more than 45 days, the player’s family can be with them for two weeks while visiting. BCCI deals with shared accommodations during this period, but other costs are borne by the player. This policy requires prior approval for individual welfare and professional responsibilities.


5. Dedication to practice session

Players must stay for the whole period of practice sessions and promote powerful work ethics and team spirit. It is strictly forbidden to travel early or separate with sessions.


4. Prohibited personal warranty while traveling

To avoid distracting, players are prohibited from participating in personal shooting or approval during the ongoing series or on tours. This allows their focus to remain in the cricket.


7. I stay until the end of the tour

Regardless of whether the game ends earlier than scheduled, the player must be with the team until the official end of the series or tour. This measurement value strengthens the team union and prevents confusion of team epidemiology.


8. Liability for baggage and logistics

The player must observe the defined baggage limit, and the excess cost is charged. The adjustment to send equipment or personal items to the Excellence Center will also be simplified to minimize logistics problems.


Execution and punishment

If you do not comply with this guideline, you may be included:

  • Tournament for BCCI, including the Indian Premier League.
  • Match fee or retainer amount according to the BCCI player contract.


Theoretical basis of policy

BCCI’s policy is designed to support the highest level of expertise and discipline. The BCCI aims to create an environment where the player can thrive and exert the maximum potential by promoting union and simplifying operation. Mandatory participation in Korea further strengthens the Indian cricket pipeline to ensure the continuity of talent development.


conclusion

Through this guideline, BCCI sent a clear message. Expertise and Union cannot negotiate. This measure not only solves the past problems, but also sets a solid foundation for the future to see if Team India remains cohesive and high -performance at the global stage. BCCI continues to pack the excellence of Indian crickets by prioritizing discipline and operational efficiency.
