India's first match in the Champions Trophy will be held on February 20, where the two teams will face Bangladesh. The Indian cricket team will fly to Dubai on February 15 for this important tournament. However, none of the players, including Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, will be accompanied by their families or girlfriends on this tour.
This is being implemented for the first time under the new travel policy of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). Under this policy of the BCCI, players can spend a maximum of two weeks with their families on tours of more than 45 days. In short-term tournaments like the Champions Trophy, the families of the players are not allowed to stay with the team.
Senior sources in the university claim that since this tour is less than a month long, the families of the players will not be with them. However, if any special circumstances arise, the players will have to bear all the expenses, the BCCI will not pay any expenses.
The BCCI's new policy states that players can meet their spouses and children once if they are on a foreign tour for more than 45 days, but only for a maximum of two weeks. In case of any exception to this decision, the player will have to bear the additional expenses.
After the Champions Trophy, the Indian team players will have their families with them during the upcoming tour of England in June-July-August, where they will have the opportunity to meet and meet during a two-week window.
After the introduction of this new travel policy, the cricketers became more careful, and the board did not allow their personal staff to stay in hotels.
