BCCI’s Anti-Vlogging Clampdown Reaches CSK as Net Bowler Deletes Camp Videos

The move targets leaks of strategy that could threaten match integrity.

Overview

  • CSK net bowler Jishan Adil, who said Tuesday he was told to delete training clips, became an early test of the new rules.
  • The BCCI advisory bans vlogging or recording in team and training areas and warns that breaches inside IPL venues could be cognisable offences, according to a directive signed by secretary Devajit Saikia.
  • The IPL Operations Team is authorised to run periodic checks to enforce compliance during the tournament.
  • Guidance has been extended beyond players to commentators, broadcasters, family members and franchise-linked content creators, who have been told to avoid posting sensitive material.
  • The tighter stance follows reported breaches, including filming near a dugout and a widely cited vaping clip on a player’s vlog, and it likely means fewer behind-the-scenes posts even as no public punishments beyond takedown requests have surfaced.
