BCCI treasurer Anirudh Chaudhary pens letter to CoA questioning workload distribution

The Committee of Administrators has been at the necks of all senior BCCI officials ever since the former came into existence after a Supreme Court decision last year. But the never-ending power struggle between the two major cricketing bodies in the country has not shown any sign of stopping anytime soon. In another instance of rebellion against the CoA by the BCCI, treasurer Anirudh Chaudhary recently penned a six-page letter in which he questioned various issues pertaining to Indian cricket. From the emphasis placed on ‘Yo-Yo test’ to the distribution of workload amongst National Cricket Academy trainers, Chaudhary brought up a host of issues that he felt were being wrongly handled by the authorities in charge.

"Was there a difference in the scores of the yo-yo test conducted prior to the IPL and post the IPL? Would the results have been different if the yo-yo test was done closer to the departure of the team to England rather than three weeks earlier? The yo-yo test is an intermittent recovery test to measure an athlete's recovery status," Chaudhry wrote in his letter.

"How are the workloads of the senior team managed? I would like a detailed note on the injuries to the contracted players in the last one year. Did the rehabilitation happen as was projected initially? Were there any deviations? Were the injuries in-competition injuries or were the injuries picked up out of competition while following some exercise routine?" he asked in the letter while adding: "Who decides on the course of treatment and the workload of the players? In the case of a difference of view between a physio and a trainer, whose view prevails?" Chaudhary added.
