Former Team India head coach Ravi Shastri feels that more Indian players should be allowed to participate in the foreign leagues, saying that playing along with international stars overseas would give youngsters terrific exposure and broaden their cricketing horizons.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) prohibits the active Team India players from featuring in any of the overseas T20 leagues. The players can only play abroad after retiring from all forms of domestic and international cricket, and are also supposed to secure a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the board.
