The BCCI is scheduled to hold an apex council meeting on July 7 to address various issues and make important decisions ahead of the upcoming ICC World Cup 2023. One of the primary concerns on the agenda is the growing trend of Indian players retiring from international cricket and participating in overseas leagues.

The board aims to regulate the involvement of retired players in such leagues and is considering the implementation of a cooling-off period. Players like Ambati Rayudu, Robin Uthappa, Yusuf Pathan, and others have recently retired and subsequently joined foreign leagues, raising questions within the Indian cricket board.

The proposed cooling-off period would require retired players to wait before participating in other leagues. The meeting will serve as a platform to discuss and potentially enforce this new regulation to address the issue.
