Coaches Seek Leeway For Players As BCCI Suspends Junior Events

By IANS News March 18, 2021 • 19:27 PM View: 2525

The BCCI's decision to postpone age-group tournaments - possibly a suspension this year - due to Covid-19 has left young players in the lurch and unless the Indian cricket board gives leeway to young cricketers, it could mean a big loss to a generation of cricketers, say prominent coaches.

The BCCI had, on Tuesday, informed state cricket bodies that it would be postponing junior cricket tournaments. Under-19 cricket was expected to begin in April but due to a rise in Covid-19 cases, it has been delayed and a decision on it will be taken only after the Indian Premier League (IPL).
