As per some of theres no restriction in England or by ECB, the Indian players can do anything, attend book launches, dine out, shop with family, go to places, mingle with fans. If they get infected, they can always tell BCCI, “look there was no Bio Bubble in place, no restrictions by ECB, or in England so we thought we as well have some good time. Sorry if it resulted in cancellation of a test match to save IPL, at least we are available for IPL”… :grin:

Without money power (due to IPL)  no one will listen to BCCI . Also we should note that by conducting 2nd phase , they tried to help Broadcasters . 

Now if IPL again gets called off , BCCI will be in trouble.

Lol that is your source? @neel roy is suggesting this be the message put by ECB and BCCI

And this is how it is. Any time, someone gets Covid, close contacts are quarantined. Physio had close contact with almost all players. All fast bowlers. I don't get how close contacts of infected can play. I am afraid most these close contacts will turn positive in coming days. IPL is over for them.

First Indian players breach regulations and dine inside a restaurant in Australia.

 

Then they breach ipl bubble and lead to ipl postponement.

 

Then they breach regulations in Lanka and all the main players get infected and lose the t20 series with reserve 

 

Now they breach the rules again and lead to indefinite postponement of the test series 

 

What a bunch of spoilt brats. And BCCI is planning an ipl season and wt20 back to back trusting these idiots. I'll surprised if they can complete without any incidents

 

 

 

Players wont risk losing their million dollar pay days. Thats why they wont f**k around and will stay in the bubble.

No need to. IPL money (and the resulting boost in world class grassroots infra) is what has taken BCCI and our cricket to where we are. 

 

If IPL is at risk, BCCI is fully within its rights to protect it's cash cow. Don't think even they can survive a 2500-3000 cr sized hole in annual revenues.

 

They do need to sack the entire TM and support staff for this gross negligence

 

High chances many close contacts of the physio will turn positive in days to come.

Anybody bought a copy yet?

 

Star Gazing: The Players in My Life, book written by Ravi Shastri launched in London

A book that has already caused a financial damage of 300 crs to ECB and could set the BCCI back by 3000 crs!

 

Shastri's revenge for not being allowed to continue as the India coach

You have no idea what you are talking about.

 

In IPL, Varun Chakravarti, was taken hospital where he got Covid. In SL was no bubble breach by players. Ensuring strict bubble is up to officials employed to that.

If there was no IPL or if it was to begin in a months time, this game would have been played.

 

IPL has ruined international cricket. Fact.

Not really. They don't have enough players to field. All fast bowlers were close contact of the physio and would have got quarantined. How would they have fielded an XI?

TM had probably already decided after Oval win that they wouldn't play the fifth test.

 

Would be interesting if they made this decision a few days back.

 

I bet it will be leaked that they did. Wouldnt surprise me.

Indian public can take a humiliating loss but cant take a forfeiture .. they will Play the test at some Point or the other

I told u

 

0.28am The series is still live! The BCCI says that the two boards will look to reschedule the Test... remarkable scenes...
 
"In lieu of the strong relationship between BCCI and ECB, the BCCI has offered to ECB a rescheduling of the cancelled Test match. Both the Boards will work towards finding a window to reschedule this Test match."
 
Wow, that's a development. Quite how and when they will do this remains to be seen. Although India are due to return to the UK in 2022 for three T20Is and three ODIs, so there's some feasibility there. Apart from anything else, James Anderson will be 40 years by then...

Boria raising the exact points that I was yesterday. What the f**k is the team admin manager doing in all this? How are multiple Team India members attending unsanctioned events? 

 

Each player and personal needs a chaperone and a security guard.
