World Cup-winning former India captain Kapil Dev believes the country’s cricketers prioritise IPL over national assignments and the onus is on the BCCI to make better schedules to avoid the mistakes committed during the ongoing T20 World Cup. India failed to make it to the semi-finals of the ICC event, paying heavily for the back-to-back early losses.
“When players prioritise IPL over playing for the country, what can we say? Players should take pride in playing for their nation. I don’t know their financial condition so can’t say much,” Kapil, 62, told ABP News, but did not dwell on the specific reason for his statement as the IPL has not clashed with any India matches.
