BCCI doesn't advise players what and what not to eat: Treasurer Arun Dhumal on dietary plan row

Speaking to India Today, BCCI treasurer Arun Dhumal said there was no directive on dietary plan issued by the board and that it has no role to play when it comes to the food choice of the senior national team players.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) Treasurer Arun Dhumal on Tuesday said that the cricket board has no role to play in determining the food choices of its contracted players. Dhumal added that the players are free to choose what they eat and what they don't as he dismissed reports that claimed the board had prepared a new dietary plan for the players of the senior men's national team ahead of the Test series against New Zealand.

Arun Dhumal, speaking to India Today, said no directive went from the BCCI to the players on dietary plan and that no such thing was even discussed by the top brass.
