The BCCI’s Jan 11 meeting has created a few ripples already. In what was supposed to be a review of the IND vs AUS series, that India lost 1-3, there seem to have been a few stern steps taken by the board. Of course, there is no official confirmation about these developments, but then — the takeaways from the meeting are, Rohit Sharma would continue as the captain. Yo-Yo fitness tests will be back, performance-based variable pay, and restriction on travel of family, wives and partners.
