NEW DELHI, July 12: The Board of Control for Cricket (BCCI) on Friday dismissed media reports claiming that it was obtaining details about the beach party attended by Indian cricketers Yuvraj Singh, Suresh Raina and Rohit Sharma on the night before the Asia Cup final which they eventually lost to Sri Lanka.

BCCI Vice-president Rajiv Shukla said that there was nothing to probe into the matter. “We are not probing anything about the party. There is nothing to probe since the team management did not lodge any complaint about any player,” Shukla said.

Earlier, some local newspapers had claimed that BCCI was getting details about the party attended by the three players at Karachi’s famous French beach with a couple of their local friends.

The report, quoting sources, said Yuvraj, Rohit and Raina had gone to the beach with their friends immediately after attending the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) awards ceremony at the Mohatta Palace the night before the final.

“Their friends had arranged a big party for them at the beach which is a hot-spot for elite Karachiites. The three players returned to their hotel early morning from the beach to play the crucial match later in the afternoon,” said the reports.

Incidentally, all three failed to score runs in the final. Yuvraj was bowled for a second ball duck by Ajantha Mendis, while Raina (16) and Rohit (3) too fell to the Sri Lankan spinner who took six for 13 to guide Sri Lanka to a thumping 100-run win.—Agencies
