The controversy with regards to the Indian cricket board and the whereabouts World Anti Doping Agency clause is set to end. Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president Shashank Manohar admitted that the clause has not yet been fully accepted by the Board, but added, "we are confident of resolving the crisis in a week's time. There will be no issue thereafter." It is learnt that the BCCI suggested certain amendments in the clause. It can be recalled that the Board refused to toe the WADA line because it felt that the clause infringed on the players' privacy. As per the clause, athletes must declare their whereabouts in advance to be tested. It is learnt that the International Cricket Council (ICC) in its recent board meeting in Singapore had approved the revised rules with minor amendments relating to the "whereabouts" provision of the ICC anti-doping code. The code is scheduled to come into effect on August 1. ICC chief executive Haroon Lorgat is reported to have said: "I am satisfied that we have now resolved the long outstanding issue of filing whereabouts information and the contribution of the BCCI in finding a solution needs to be acknowledged. This is a complex area for players and administrators." Meanwhile, WADA has yet to hear from the ICC. "We will be in a position to comment once we have received detailed information from the ICC and once we have had a chance to review their amended rules," Fr ufffdd ufffdric Donz ufffd, WADA's Senior Manager, Media Relations &amp; Communications, said from Montreal.
