In a major move, the BCCI is all set to bar the state units from directly engaging with the foreign boards to organise training camps and competitions. All such proposals will have to compulsorily go through the BCCI, with this decision set to be taken in the board’s Apex Council meeting on March 18.
The decision has come after Delhi and Puducherry went ahead with hosting associate nations. The Delhi and Districts Cricket Association has received a proposal from the Nepal board, as per a report in PTI.
“State units can surely partner foreign boards for cricket related activities but those agreements have to be facilitated by the BCCI as it is the parent body. All proposals must go through BCCI,” said a BCCI source. Meanwhile, Team Nepal is expected to be in India for an exposure trip ahead of the T20 World Cup.
The Cricket Association of Nepal officials had a meeting with BCCI secretary last month. In the past as well, the BCCI has extended help to associate nations. When Afghanistan was upcoming in the cricketing world, the team had made Dehradun and Greater Noida as their base.
