Players who pull out of the Indian Premier League at short notice will be banned from taking part in the following two seasons in a new rule introduced to the world’s most lucrative T20 franchise league.
The rule will impact any player who signs up for an auction and is picked, but pulls out before the start of the season.
It is understood there will be an exemption for “injury or medical condition”.
England players Gus Atkinson, Mark Wood, David Willey and Harry Brook were all among those to pull out of the IPL this year.
Brook withdrew following the death of his grandmother.
