President Binny has made it a priority and we are looking to manage it better. And of course those who are in charge will be questioned,” a senior BCCI official told InsideSport.

Team India support staff faces heat 

In particular, Soham Desai and Nitin Patel will face the heat. Desai who is India’s strength & conditioning coach is under fire for his role in Bangladesh. On the tour, India have lose Deepak Chahar to yet another hamstring injury. Apart from him, Rishabh Pant and Kuldeep Sen are also out injured. Post the Bangladesh series, CAC will review strength and conditioning coach Soham Desai’s role. 

Back in India, Nitin Patel rushed Jasprit Bumrah’s return. As a result, an unfit Bumrah missed the T20 World Cup. Deepak Chahar’s repeated injuries are also a big red flag for the BCCI. Rohit also questioned NCA’s role, saying players cannot represent India half-fit.

“I mean there are definitely a few injury concerns. We need to try and get to the bottom of it. I don’t know what exactly it is. Maybe they’re playing too much cricket. We need to try and monitor those guys because it’s important to understand when they come for India, they need to be a 100%, in fact more than 100%. They cannot represent India half-fit,” Rohit said after India’s loss to Bangladesh in 2nd ODI.
