Скачать или смотреть What is BCCI's new move to curb Age Fraud? |Sports Today

The Age Verification Programme (AVP), practised to curb age-fudging in junior cricket, has been modified by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). Starting this year, the BCCI will permit a second bone test for players whose 'bone age' exceeds the threshold - 16 years for boys and 15 years for girls. The decision was taken by the BCCI at its recent Apex Council meeting. Until now, the BCCI has been conducting bone tests for boys in the 14-16 age group. As per the prevailing practice, once a player's bone age is determined, one year is added to it. This adjusted figure - referred also as 'mathematical age' - is treated as the official age for eligibility in the BCCI age-group competitions. For instance, if Player X's bone age is assessed as 14.8 years, the BCCI adds one year, making it 15.8.
