BCCI Stands Firm On Not Allowing Anti-Doping Body To Conduct Tests On Indian Cricketers

The stand-off between the National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA) and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) took another turn on Friday with the latter reiterating that the government body has no jurisdiction to conduct dopes tests on Indian cricketers. In a letter written on November 8 to NADA chief Navin Agarwal, BCCI CEO Rahul Johri made it clear that there is no requirement for NADA to tests its cricketers since the board is not a National Sports Federation (NSF) and its present anti-doping system is robust enough.
