BCCI cracks down on IPL franchises over protocol breaches

New Delhi, May 8 (UNI) Hours after BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia warned IPL franchises and players that the board “isn’t sitting idle” over repeated protocol breaches during IPL 2026, the BCCI issued a strict advisory to all 10 franchises regarding multiple violations related to discipline, conduct and security during the ongoing season.
In a seven-page document sent to all teams, Saikia warned that repeated violations could damage the reputation of the IPL, the franchises and the board itself. While the advisory did not mention any franchise, player or official by name, it highlighted several serious issues that have come to the board’s notice. These included unauthorised visitors entering hotel rooms, franchise owners interacting with players during matches, vaping at venues and players or officials leaving team hotels without approval.
“It has come to the attention of the BCCI that certain incidents of misconduct and protocol violations have occurred involving players, support staff, and team officials during the course of the current IPL season,” Saikia said in the advisory.
