AB De Villiers hopes BCCI allows Indian players to compete in SA20

The Hindu  

South African great Ab de Villiers hopes the BCCI will allow Indian players to take part in the SA20 in the near future as it will only raise the profile of the young franchise-based league. The BCCI doesn’t allow active players to take part in overseas leagues and as of now, the only way to play events outside India is by calling time on your career at home. “And hopefully the BCCI will allow us to get more Indian players in the future to come and join the fun of the SA20,” said de Villiers in a select media interaction ahead of third edition of SA20 beginning on January 9. Having said that, he is fully aware that the BCCI is not going to make active Indian players available for overseas leagues anytime soon.
