Knock knock… “Come in.” People close to players have not witnessed this for a while now ever since the anti-corruption measures came into play.

Meanwhile, the BCCI, acting on a few complaints, has barred all visitors from entering the hotel rooms of IPL players without the manager’s permission. One of the items mentioned in a document sent to 10 IPL teams reportedly says that no one, “shall be permitted entry into a player’s or support staff member’s hotel room without the prior knowledge and explicit written approval of the Team Manager.”
