NEW DELHI, Feb 25: The BCCI might seek an explanation from veteran keeper-batter Wriddhiman Saha about his recent outburst targetting Board President Sourav Ganguly and head coach Rahul Dravid after being dropped from the Indian team as it feels he violated the protocols for centrally-contracted cricketers.
It is learnt that Saha, who is group B of central contracts with an annual retainership of Rs 3 crore, is in violation of clause 6.3.
“Player shall not make any comments about the game, officials, incidents that happened in the game, use of technology, selection matters or any other matter related to the game which is in opinion of the BCCI is adverse to and /or not in the interest of the game, team or BCCI in any media…,” the clause states.
The specific comments that Saha made across media is on his selection and his private conversations with Dravid, chairman of selectors Chetan Sharma and Ganguly.
Saha has since also made public allegedly “threatening” whatsapp messages from a journalist without taking names. (PTI)
