The BCCI is all set to implement stricter protocols with the Indian cricket team which include limiting the time players spend with their families on tour and barring independent transport for players while commuting for practice and matches.

The new restriction bars families on international tours, citing concerns over players' focus and performance.

The Indian Cricket Board has reacted sharply to India's loss in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Sources have told India Today that the BCCI has cracked the whip on the Indian team and has taken strict steps to get their focus back on the game.

Team India lost the five-match Test series in Australia 1-3 recently and for the first time since 2014, they lost consecutive series in the longest format having earlier lost to New Zealand 0-3 at home.

In response to the Indian cricket team’s recent poor performances—most notably a home series whitewash against New Zealand and a 1-3 loss in Australia—the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced significant changes aimed at boosting player focus and team cohesion.
