Following the BCCI’s decision to suspend Harry Brook from the Indian Premier League (IPL) for two years, former Australia captain Michael Clarke backed the organization.
Michael Clarke, the former captain of Australia, backed the BCCI’s decision to suspend Harry Brook from the Indian Premier League (IPL) for two years. The decision was made when the England batter withdrew from the sport, even though the Delhi Capitals had paid Rs 6.25 crore for him at the super auction. The BCCI regulations stipulate that a player who is purchased at auction and subsequently withdraws would be suspended for two years. Clarke stated that he fully comprehends BCCI’s position on the issue and that this will set a precedent going forward. He went on to say that players should only withdraw in cases of necessity and that they cannot do so just because they did not receive the amount they wanted in the auction.”For what reason was Harry Brook purchased? Imagine that he is currently banned despite having a full contract with the ECB. Because this is also what occurs. Many players enter the auction, withdraw, and are not selected for the amount they would like. Clarke stated on the Beyond23 Cricket Podcast, “The IPL says that if you pull out, you get an automatic two-year ban.”
“Harry Brook seems to be the first player to do that, but I can see why the IPL would take that action. Every player wants more money, but once you enter an auction and are purchased, you must accept that and realize that you cannot simply withdraw because you haven’t received the amount you are seeking.”
Brook was hailed by Clarke as a fantastic talent who would undoubtedly participate in the IPL in the future. However, Clarke also stated that no player may leave the competition without a valid reason.”He is a fantastic player, and I am confident that he will play in the IPL in the future if he so chooses. However, he most likely has a reason. The other thing is that. The decision between the IPL and domestic competition will need to be made by each person. You can choose to enter.””I can’t recall if it was the first or second year, but I withdrew when a member of my family died. I return home to attend the funeral, family gatherings, and other events. Therefore, I believe the IPL will accept and appreciate personal reasons, but they will take harsh action if it’s because you’re not receiving the money you desire. And you must honor that,” he said in closing.
