In a major boost towards ensuring the seamless transfer and dissemination of funds to players and state associations, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), under the stewardship of Secretary Jay Shah, on Saturday announced the adoption and upgradation of a new digital interface.
Through this upgradation, BCCI said that the players and state associations will now be guaranteed of minimal paperwork and a reduced timeline to process invoices. Under the benefits of the BCCI Database Management System (ODMS), state associations will be able to approve and recommend to the BCCI to release fees to players digitally.
Also, state associations will not be required to wait till the time of submission of invoices by all players for the tournament. The associations have the flexibility to approve players' claims on a regular basis. Players themselves will now be able to raise invoices as per their convenience at any location through the online portal.
