Players of the Indian team, who arrived in Sydney to play their second match (India vs Netherlands) against the Netherlands in the T20 World Cup, were given spoiled, cold and poor quality food during a practice session. The Board of Control for Cricket in India has reacted strongly to this. The players of Team India have lodged their complaint and objection with the ICC regarding this misconduct.
According to BCCI sources, the Indian players were not happy with the food they got for lunch after the practice session on Tuesday. Players were sweating during practice on the field ahead of the India-Netherlands match on Thursday but were served very poor food. The food served to the players is of poor quality and that too cold. The BCCI has complained about this to the ICC, on which the ICC has to take action.

Talks of discrimination have also come to the fore regarding the practice session with Team India. He was given a practice ground at Blacktown near Sydney, about 42 km from the Team India hotel. In such a situation, Team India has not done a practice session. The BCCI along with the team management, has complained about this entire matter to the ICC .
Anurag Thakur said during an event, “When people from all over the world come to India, India leaves no stone unturned in organizing. Countries around the world know that many Indian players are also vegetarian. Eating outside the country was a big problem. There was little to eat in countries like the West Indies. When I was the chairman and general secretary of the board, I used to send chefs and cooks along with the team many times so that the players would not have any problem with food.
He further said, ‘There should not be such a problem in a country like Australia. There are many people of Indian origin. There is no dearth of Indian cuisine. If this has happened in Australia, then the cricket board there should seriously consider it. If players don’t eat properly how can they expect to do well.”
In the match, the Indian cricket team started the tournament with a win by defeating Pakistan on the last ball in a thrilling match. Meanwhile, in the practice session of the second match, the team sweated profusely. The victory against the Netherlands can make the journey of the Indian team to the semi-finals easier, due to which this match is being considered important.
