Shut up your mouth, Indian Cricket Board tells the players

Two Indian cricket players -- Rohit Sharma and Cheteshwar Pujara -- have been cautioned by the Indian cricket control Board for giving interviews to media.The Board reminded them that it was violation of their contractual terms.Rohit had given interviews shortly after returning from the tri-series in the West Indies where he did very well as an opener.

Pujara, who was not on the tour to the West Indies, had given an interview speaking about making himself a regular in the Indian ODI team following his selection for the tour of Zimbabwe.


As per the BCCI contract, no Indian player is allowed to speak to the media one month before and after a particular tour. Altogether 39 Indian players are contracted across three grades with Grade A players getting Rs one crore annually while Grade B and Grade C get Rs 50 lakh and Rs 25 lakh respectively.

BCCI is so powerful and the players are not able to say anything against the Board.
