Tournaments like Women’s Senior ODI Tournament, Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and Vijay Hazare Trophy have been played and now in a few days the country’s most prominent tournament Ranji Trophy is going to start. The previous season of the tournament could not be played due to Coronavirus, but now the domestic players will get a chance to show their strength by getting on the field again. Another good news has come with the organization of the tournament for the players. The Board of Control for Cricket in India has paid the domestic players as compensation for the last season canceled due to Corona.
The BCCI had announced last year that the board would compensate the loss to the players due to the cancellation of the tournament. For this, a committee was constituted by the BCCI under the chairmanship of former Indian captain Mohammad Azharuddin, which suggested the payment formula. The board has now paid the players by implementing this formula. Last year, for the first time in the 85-year history of the Ranji Trophy, the tournament had to be called off. However, this year also the cases of corona infection have started increasing. However, due to almost all the players having both doses of the vaccine, this time it is starting from January 13.
