Typical childish attitude from the BCCI, must be embarrassing at times to be an Indian cricketer. Like having that awkward uncle that says all the wrong things......

brilliant, I want to some Ali Cook burning effigies next!

this is definitely the best way to become the no1 test team.

what would happen to the IPL if they did the same with some Aussie players!

They remind me of a child throwing a tantrum after they've lost a game.

another shot in the foot by their own governing body
if i was the BCCI i would be asking the ECB if they can have players into our County Championship like the old days.
runs in the sub-continent dont count for as much as outside Asia

Dravid,my fav Indian player,learnt how to play the moving ball over here and became a legend.
they need to find an exchange arrangement for players to improve Indian cricket

but they wont because everything and anything revolves around India

The ICC really need to give BCCI a good beating. They're claiming well too much power than they should be at the moment.

I totally agree with ppccopener.
Instead of banning foreign players playing on their tracks they should be sending their own players out into foreign conditions.

Im an Indian supporter but its all getting rather embarrassing now!

BCCI and Gavaskar has something in common .....

Reminds me of classical quote by commentator ( don't know his name ) " Sunil Gavaskar who was on strike now wants to go on strike "  :D

Sunil Gavaskar walks off in Australia tour

Ridiculous by India. Not too much hassle for us to just go to Bangladesh or somewhere else instead and makes them look like fools (again!).

We should say they cannot train at our facilities when they play over here (for India or for counties), see how they like it...

Does anyone know the actual timing of this - I.e. have the bcci done this after the recent vote regarding DRS. Which only the ecb were bold enough to actually vote for...

Conspiracy theory's away!

and well I think someone is rather excited.
