BCCI mandates Ranji Trophy participation for players amidst IPL focus

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has taken a firm stance against players prioritizing the Indian Premier League (IPL) over domestic cricket, mandating participation in the upcoming round of Ranji Trophy matches. In an effort to foster discipline and commitment to state teams, the BCCI has issued a directive to players not part of the national squad or undergoing rehabilitation at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) to join their respective state teams.

The decision, conveyed via email to players, aims to ensure that cricketers honor their commitments to domestic cricket, emphasizing the importance of balancing international commitments with participation in domestic tournaments. Notable players likely to be impacted by this mandate include Ishan Kishan, Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya, Deepak Chahar, and Shreyas Iyer, all of whom have been absent from first-class cricket for an extended period, prompting scrutiny and criticism.
