Pay parity for international cricketers was initiated, which means the match fees for women’s players are now at par with their male counterparts across formats.
Recently, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (Bcci) led the way for the formation and selling of franchises as well as media rights for the upcoming Women’s Premier League, to be held in March 2023. It has made the five-team Wpl the second-most valuable women’s sports league in the world, behind only the 12-team Women’s NBA in the US.
There was also the adoption and upgradation of a new digital interface, which would help the state associations approve and recommend to the Bcci release of fees to players digitally.
Also, an inaugural U-15 girls one-day tournament has been started from this season to unearth more hidden talent and nurture them to rise through the ranks in women’s cricket. The...

New Delhi, Sep 14 (Ians) In a landmark decision, the Supreme Court on Wednesday allowed the Board of Control for Cricket in India’s (Bcci) plea in connection with the amendments proposed to its constitution to relax the cooling-off period requirement.
Accordingly, the cooling-off period for office-bearers will kick in after two consecutive terms at either the Bcci or at the state association level. So the office-bearers can now have a maximum of 12 years at one go: Two three-year terms at the state association level and two three-year terms at the Bcci, and after this, the cooling-off period will be applicable.
The decision will allow the current set of office-bearers led by Bcci President Sourav Ganguly and Secretary Jay Shah to be in office until 2025. Ganguly and Shah had already served one term each at the state and Bcci level and would have been disqualified under the existing rule.
However, they...

New Delhi, Nov 28 (Ians) Historian Ramachandra Guha, a former member of the Committee of Administrators (CoA) that ran the Board of Control for Cricket in India (Bcci) during the reforms process ordered by the Supreme Court, has lashed out at the superstar culture in Indian cricket that has allowed top cricketers to have veto power over every decision.
In an interview to www.espncricinfo.com about his new book, The Commonwealth of Cricket, Guha lavished praised on former India captain Bishan Bedi but blames the Board, especially the Vinod Rai-headed CoA, for not showing enough spine to stand up to the likes of Ms Dhoni and Virat Kohli.
"When Bedi once gave a television interview where he said some sarcastic things, he was banned for a (Test) match in Bangalore in 1974. Players had to get more power, they had to get organised, they had to be noticed, they had to be paid properly,...
