NEW DELHI: Former national selector Saba Karim has weighed in on the BCCI's Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) regarding family time for players during overseas tours, stressing the importance of striking the "right balance."
The BCCI's current policy limits family presence on tour, permitting immediate family members to join players for 14 days after the first fortnight of tours exceeding 45 days. On shorter tours, families can stay for up to seven days. While this regulation aims to maintain focus on cricket, some players have voiced concerns over its rigidity.
