suresh raina minced no words while talking to his former india teammate Irfan Pathan recently on the topic of out-of-favour players not being allowed to play in foreign t20 leagues by the Board of Control for cricket in india (BCCI). It is well known that bcci doesn't allow indian players to take part in foreign t20 leagues even as some of the biggest global stars grace the country each year for the annual blockbuster known as the indian Premier League (IPL).

 

raina said "I wish bcci plans something with ICC or the franchises that indian players who don't have a contract with the bcci are allowed to play outside. At least allow us to play in two different foreign leagues. If we play quality cricket in terms of foreign leagues, then it would be good for us. All international players make a comeback by playing in all those leagues". Pathan added "I would suggest that all those players who are 30 years old and they are not on your radar to play international matches, you should allow them to play in foreign leagues".

 

In the past few years, there have been a number of cases of well known indian players being declined no-objection-certificates (NOCs) by the bcci to play in the Australian Big Bash League along with english and south African t20 competitions. These NOCs are standard practice and even foreign players are required to get them from their respective boards before playing in the IPL or any other such league. But the bcci has used them to encroach upon their own players' rights while continuing to benefit from those of foreigners.Last year, yuvraj singh and Manpreet Gony had to retire from international cricket in order to get a nod from the Board to play in Global t20 Canada. Before them, Irfan Pathan and harbhajan singh had to withdraw their names from the players' drafts of the Caribbean Premier League and The Hundred respectively after bcci refused to grant them the NOCs.
