You have probably heard about the coaches. # Ravi Shashtri has been appointed as the Cricket Manager for India s upcoming tour to Bangladesh. # Venkatesh Prasad appointed as the bowling coach # Robin Singh appointed as the fielding coach. Now some restrictions on ads: # No player can endorse more than 3 products # No same product can be endorsed by more than 2 players. # No players will be allowed to do endorsements two weeks before a tour. # Players will have to seek BCCI's permission before signing endorsement. Other rules: # All players should play domestic cricket # Zonal system has been scrapped (very good) # Players will be paid according to performance # Players cannot speak to the media exclusively. Only captain can speak to media and that too not exclusively. # All state cricket boards must start cricket academies by 2009. # Frequency of under-19 tours will be increased.

Hey dude its a good discussion. Every Indian fan is taking this as a good sign for Indian cricket, but I don't think so b'coz the sponsores who had already made contracts with the players won't agree with this...... & without sponsers how can Indian team go & play cricket or how could BCCI maintain all this...Its all a part of the game to make the fans fools..
