Mumbai, May 17: The Cricket Board will issue show cause notices tomorrow to six players, including senior members Yuvraj Singh and Zaheer Khan, for their alleged involvement in a pub brawl in St Lucia after India’s humiliating exit from Twenty20 World Cup in the West Indies.
Besides Yuvraj and Zaheer, show cause notice would be served to Ashish Nehra, Rohit Sharma, Piyush Chawla and Ravindra Jadeja, according to BCCI sources here.
The tough stand by the Board came in the wake of tour manager Ranjib’s Biswal’s report to BCCI President Shashank Manohar and his meeting today with the latter at BCCI headquarters here.
Without naming either the errant players or their number, BCCI Chief Administrative Officer Ratnakar Shetty said show cause notices would be sent to these players by Board Secretary N Srinivasan tomorrow at the behest of Manohar.
