The Indian cricket board has rejected requests from players to participate in the two next T20 competitions in South Africa and the UAE, dealing a severe blow to most IPL clubs.
Even the cricketers competing in the lucrative league are not permitted to serve as mentors in these other competitions.
We won’t let any players take part in the two new leagues, we said. Players who want to participate in the two competitions must sever their links with the BCCI, a BCCI official told The Indian Express.

Karthik was required by the central contract to get approval from the board before entering the changing rooms. a
