BCCI Bans Harry Brook for IPL 2025 Withdrawal
Former England captain Michael Vaughan has defended the BCCI's decision to impose a two-year ban on Harry Brook for pulling out of the IPL 2025, asserting that the rules were clear and established before the auction. Brook, who was acquired by Delhi Capitals for Rs 6.25 crore, withdrew to focus on England duties, sparking criticism from figures like Michael Clarke and Moeen Ali. This is the second consecutive year Brook has opted out after being purchased, previously citing personal reasons for missing IPL 2024. The BCCI's new rule enforces a two-year ban on players who withdraw after being picked, unless due to injury confirmed by their national board. Vaughan suggested that Brook's decision might be influenced by aspirations to become England's white-ball captain, a role that requires his focus on international cricket. Critics argue that Brook's actions disrupt franchise plans, underscoring the necessity of the BCCI's strict policy.
