BCCI’s ACSU Issues Show-Cause Notice to RR Manager Romi Bhinder over Dugout Phone Use
Bhinder has 48 hours to respond as the BCCI investigates a dugout phone use that led to a notice and a viral clip.
- Rajasthan Royals manager Romi Bhinder used a mobile phone in the team dugout during their IPL match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru on Friday. IPL Governing Council Chair Arun Dhumal ordered the BCCI to investigate the incident.
- BCCI protocol prohibits mobile phone use within the Match Officials Area to prevent protocol breaches. Cameras captured Bhinder using his device during the match, prompting the ACSU to flag the violation.
- Sources revealed Bhinder suffers severe health complications; "Both of his lungs had collapsed and that medical emergency meant he spent nearly a month in a Nagpur hospital." He has asthma and mobility constraints requiring at least 50 steps to reach the dressing room.
- The BCCI served Bhinder a notice requiring him to explain his actions to the ACSU within 48 hours. Officials are reviewing whether his phone usage violated protocol despite possessing the device being technically permitted.
- Sources expressed hope that "the ACSU officials will keep Romi's medical conditions in mind before arriving at a conclusion." Bhinder remains with the team as the investigation proceeds.
