BCCI bars its players from counties with ICL players

[yoda]

I think by observing the BCCI's acts we can get a much broader look into how caste-system (in India) developed. If the BCCI are allowed to act according to whims and fancies' date=' [b']there will soon be a rule that all the players in the ICL should crawl in the presence of IPL players. lol

:haha:

BCCI is acting like a typical money making organization. They are forgetting that they have another responsibility- improving the game.

[fineleg]

BCCI babus! I hope they can be put in place.

I agree, the BCCI is a complete monkey making organization. Pretty soon they'll have made complete monkies out of any decent players: You can see Sehwag on the right following the BCCI's latest recommended workout program at the NCA.

My big concern is what if all other boards decide too join hands and go against BCCI. What if Eng and Aus refuse to visit India later this year?

Not possible. If England and Australia do that, ICC will have to take action against them. BCCI is not breaking any rules.

Ajit Agarkar turns down Worcestershire Worcestershire (307-4) v GlamorganWorcestershire made encouraging progress on the pitch at New Road but lost ground off it where they missed out the signing of Indian seamer Ajit Agarkar because of their captain Vikram Solanki's links with the Indian Cricket League. More... Ajit Agarkar turns down Worcestershire By Paul Bolton at Worcester Last Updated: 1:39am BST 18/07/2008 Worcestershire made encouraging progress on the pitch at New Road but lost ground off it when they missed out on the signing of Indian seamer Ajit Agarkar because of their captain Vikram Solanki's links with the Indian Cricket League. Agarkar had agreed terms to replace Australian Steve Magoffin as Worcestershire's overseas player, but was 'advised' to withdraw by the Indian board, who do not want their players associated with team-mates who have appeared in the 'rebel' ICL. Worcestershire have renewed their search for a long-term replacement for Magoffin but have registered Imran Arif, 24, a Bradford League seamer, as a locum. Worcestershire built confidently on a first century opening partnership of the season between Stephen Moore and Daryl Mitchell.

Ajit Agarkar turn down Worsetershire offer WTF

they missed out on the signing of Indian seamer Ajit Agarkar because of their captain Vikram Solanki's links with the Indian Cricket League. Agarkar had agreed terms to replace Australian Steve Magoffin as Worcestershire's overseas player, but was 'advised' to withdraw by the Indian board, who do not want their players associated with team-mates who have appeared in the 'rebel' ICL.

So now Indian players cant even play in a side that has player with contacts in ICL

[flamy]

[Sachinism]

stupid ass BCCI

[The Outsider]

Worcestershire should thank their stars and BCCI for saving them from the ire of Aggy.

[Tapioca]

Aggy is too good a player to play for third rate teams like Worcestershire.

[Yuvraj4Captaincy]

Worcestershire is too good a team to play thrid rate Agarkar. Less threads on Aggy the better..He brings back sh!t memories.

[chamatkar]

Aggy aside ... per cricinfo, there are just three counties - middlesex, essex and somerset - with uncontracted ICL players. The remaining 15 counties are therefore out of bounds for indian players looking to gain experience in english conditions. The stupid political stance is now getting in the way of the development of cricket.

[doubt]

y too much hatred on aggi he has good record in one days after kapil, srinath and kumble ERR is a bit high but not much when you compare with the likes to Zaks, irfan, rps

[Dravid]

Laxman could be banned from Notts VVS Laxman may be banned from playing for Nottinghamshire due to BCCI's ruling regarding Indian Cricket League players. More... Laxman could be banned from Notts Page last updated at 10:32 GMT, Friday, 18 July 2008 11:32 UK Laxman has scored nearly 6,000 Test runs (Getty) India batting star VVS Laxman could be prevented from playing for Nottinghamshire because of the county's Indian Cricket League players. The Board of Control for Cricket in India did not sanction the Twenty20 league rival to the IPL and therefore consider ICL players as rebels. As a result, the BCCI will not allow their players to join a side that has anyone in it who featured in the ICL. Laxman was signed by Notts as the replacement for Australian Adam Voges. Laxman was due to arrive at Trent Bridge after India's forthcoming Test series against Sri Lanka but that now looks unlikely because of the BCCI's stance. Notts have three players who played in the ICL - New Zealanders Chris Cairns and Andre Adams, plus England's Chris Read. Laxman's India team-mate, spinner Piyush Chawla, is set to suffer the same fate over his planned move to Hampshire, who also have a contingent of ICL players.

I agree tht BCCI is doing the wrong thing by stopping players to play in county ... Since they r free so they should be allowed to utilize their time by playing some sort of cricket ... But I don't agree with some guys here, who say tht our players will lose a chance to gain valuable experience ... County is one of the most hyped cricketing structure one can see ... Most of the players are aged and retired/useless players from different countries ... U see players hitting hundred centuries and still scoring a single hundred at international level is as difficult for them as to climb Mt. Everest ... Despite having so many matches, how many quality players have Eng produced ... The one KP is also imported :D So I don't think our players will lose anything by not playing there ... But if allowed they would have remained match fit whenever call comes for them for the national side ...
