BCCI angry over Virat Kohli sharing his yo-yo fitness test results: ‘Breach of contract if…’

All the players who are yet to undergo the yo-yo fitness test for the upcoming Asia Cup 2023 have been informed about the guidelines “verbally.” The cricket administration reminded the players that sharing such confidential information on social media platforms can be inferred as a “breach of contract.”

“Players have been informed verbally to avoid posting any confidential matter on social media platforms. They can post pictures while training but posting a score leads to breach of contract clause,” a BCCI official was quoted as saying in the report.
