India’s players dined at a Melbourne restaurant in an apparent breach of Cricket Australia’s biosecurity protocols for the game's $300 million summer.

The Indian board has launched an investigation after stars Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant, Shubman Gill, Navdeep Saini and Prithvi Shaw were seen seated indoors at Secret Kitchen, a noodles and BBQ restaurant at Chadstone Shopping Centre.

It comes as the rapidly changing coronavirus situation in Victoria and NSW leaves open the possibility of Sydney hosting the third and fourth Tests of the series.

Staff at the restaurant confirmed to The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age on Saturday the group visited on New Year’s Day and dined inside.

Players and staff from both sides have strict conditions on their movement as part of measures to minimise the chances of the lucrative series being affected by any COVID-19 outbreak. They are allowed to eat out, but must be seated outdoors.

An India fan, Navaldeep Singh, posted footage on social media of the group at the restaurant, claiming he had paid the $118.69 bill for the players.

There is no suggestion the restaurant has acted inappropriately.

He also published pictures of players carrying shopping, including one of wicketkeeper Pant with a Valentino bag. The brand has a store at Chadstone. Players, however, are allowed to shop via click and collect with face masks to be worn indoors.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India is reviewing the video after being alerted to it by this masthead. A spokesman for the BCCI declined to comment further.

Cricket Australia has not responded to a request for comment.

Umm you do know that there is not strict lockdown in Melbourne and you can go out. Masks became mandatory outdoors just a couple of days before due to outbreak in Sydney which is an evolving situation.
Otherwise once you have completed your quarantine.. you can go about shopping and other things in Melbourne atleast.
I am pretty sure they did not break any law.. and you will end with an egg on your face pretty soon.

Read the first line of the article. Cricket Australia's biosecurity protocols are stricter than what the common Melbourne citizen has to follow.

The series is already in deep trouble.

The Sydney Tests is scheduled for 7-11 January and the Brisbane one for 15-19 January.

But current rules prohibit anyone who has been in Sydney entering Brisbane until 15 days after they leave Sydney - and the lackadaisical response of the NSW government to their current Three Cluster Outbreak seems almost certain to make the schedule unworkable.

Actually no.

Cricket Australia received a Conditional Exemption for the two teams to enter Queensland on 10 January on the assurance that the players would be prevented from attending shops or indoor restaurants in both Victoria and Queensland during the period of 14 days prior to arrival - ie from 27 December to 10 January.

Any player found to have attended a shop or restaurant in person after 27 December is out of the Brisbane Test, because he can’t enter Queensland.

i am pretty much expecting this thread to blow up due to obvious reasons.. and people will come up with new rules and stories to insult Indian players.

But, I will let the CA and BCCI response and facts to come out. Meanwhile you guys can have your fun and come up with all the hyperboles and new stories.

The tour will go ahead without any issues I can guarantee that.

Have fun.

Not sure why you are feeling so aggrieved. The story wouldnt be a story if there wasnt an issue.

Lets see what comment BCCI make as it is an embarrassing situation.
 
A few members of the Indian cricket team could have landed themselves in a soup by inadvertently breaching the bio-secure bubble protocols. Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant, Shubman Gill, etc. were out eating in a restaurant when they met a fan who claims to have paid their bill too.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and Cricket Australia are reportedly looking into the matter after coming to know of the incident with the fan. The fan, by the name of Navaldeep Singh, paid their $118 dollar bill at the restaurant after surprisingly spotting some of the top Indian players eating next to him at Secret Kitchen Chinese restaurant at Chadstone Shopping Centre.

The fan has claimed to have interacted with the players, clicked photos with them, and even hugged wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant.

As per Cricket Australia's bio-security protocol, players are allowed to eat out at restaurants but have to be seated outdoors. As per the video posted by the fan, the players seemed to be sitting indoors that too without masks on their faces.

So far, it hasn't been proved that the Indian players did breach the social distancing guidelines as no pictures of them being in close contact with the fan have come out.

It also has to be noted that Cricket Australia had levied a hefty fine to Brisbane Heat after their players Chris Lynn and Dan Lawrence were found to have taken a selfie with a fan. The two players as well as the franchise were penalised for the incident.

I think Cricket Australia will play both Tests at the SCG, without a crowd.

Which should help India - lower bounce than Brisbane.

I read about a guy congratulating Rahane in the Chadstone mall on some other place. Indian cricketers being typical desis - disrespecting the protocol.

Why are you being such a pre-emptive crybaby? You seem to be more concerned about what is said than the team actually breaching the protocols?
 
Embarassing thing for indian cricket but I doubt our players would feel any of the embarassment. More embarassing thing though is some random guy paying your food bill and telling it to the entire world.

Ok, i take my words back. Seems like this guy forcibly paid the bill, without them knowing.

“When they got know that i have paid the bill.. Rohit sharma said bhaji pese lelo yaar acha nai lagta.. i said no sir its on me. Pant hugged me and said photo tabhi hogi jab pese loge wapis. I said no bro not happening. Finally sabane photo khichwai :) mja aa gya yaar #blessed,” Singh wrote.

For BCCI to take any action, Australian authorities need to complain like NZ did when Pak playerd broke the bubble. But don't think anyone from Australia has lodged a formal complain for BCCI to further investigate. So its a non issue....sab changa si.
 
The commentators have confirmed on the BBL that the biosecurity arrangments are players not being allowed to eat in in restaurants, which the players have clearly been photographed as failing to adhere to. The fact the BCCI have not just confirmed they themselves will be taking no action but that they won't even be investigating it should be pretty concerning. Interesting to see what actions CA and the state governments take.
 
LOL I thought only Pakistani players were uneducated and unintelligent in this world.....

As I told you earlier, There was no rule breaking by Indian players.
I live in Melbourne, i had relatives visiting from other state and countries as well.
The players went through a quarantine period, and after that they can go about like any normal citizen/visitor/anyone within Victoria does. Go out with precaution.
The current outbreak is Sydney happened some 3-4 days before and is an evolving situation.
But the Indian players are in Melbourne, not in NSW/Sydney.

People here are comparing it to the way Pakistan players were told off by NZ health and doing bhangra over here and cooking up new rules and stories.
The difference is, Pakistan players broke the rules of quarantine. Here Indian players have completed all the requirements and they know and follow all the protocols.

So, you, without going to any depth, just post a vile insult of so called "disgusting Indians", when they have broken no rules.
I am pretty sure there will be no telling off by the Vic health and NSW health, and if that happens.. Then BCCI and India is not so meek that they will allow their players to be insulted like that. [MENTION=93712]MenInG[/MENTION], my aggravation is with this kind of insulting language being used.
But you are the mod, so you decide. It will get a reaction from Indians if you call them disgusting.
 
Cricket Australia Statement

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and Cricket Australia (CA) were today alerted to a video post on social media that purported to show Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant, Shubman Gill, Prithvi Shaw and Navdeep Saini eating at an indoor venue in Melbourne on New Year’s Day.

The BCCI and CA are investigating the matter and seeking to determine whether the outing constitutes a breach of biosecurity protocols.

In the interim, on the advice of the Australian and Indian medical teams, the aforementioned players have been placed in isolation as a precaution. This will include separating the group of players from the broader Indian and Australian squads when traveling and at the training venue.

Players will be permitted to train in accordance with the strict protocols that have been put in place to ensure the ongoing safety of all members of the Indian and Australian squads.

Similar measures were taken during the BBL this season after it was determined two Brisbane Heat players failed to comply with tournament biosecurity protocols.

Nothing will happen. There is a difference between PCB and BCCI. As soon as the match will start, it will be forgotten till then people can moan about it.
 
My question is, if public is only allowed to eat seating outdoors....why did the restaurant staff allowed them to dine inside? Maybe players were not aware but restaurant staff should have reminded them of the rules. Not only players, even that Baljeet guy who aparently paid the bill was also eating indoors.

So what is the rule? Eating inside allowed or not? Are even Aussies aware what the rules are in their country? Lol

The public are allowed to eat indoors, it's restrictions on the players (that will allow them to bypass things like internal 14 day quarantine requirements) that have been broken.

You can sit inside. Capacity is limited e.g. a restaurant with 50 capacity can have 25-30 people inside.
Tables are bit farther apart than normal.
Otherwise there is no restriction.. in fact even Masks were not mandatory 3-4 days ago.
Only on new years eve, due to some covid cases the ruling was changed to have mask indoors. e.g. wear a mask when in supermarekt. So players, as such did not break any rules.

As mentioned above, the players are subject to additional restrictions given they're regularly travelling around and also going to be allowed to bypass some travel restrictions/quarantine requirements. They've been photographed breaking these restrictions and hence now been isolated and under investigation.

Australian health ministry should fire off a warning to these players too and deport them if needed
 
The BCCI on Saturday rubbished reports that it was investigating a violation of COVID-19 protocols by some Indian cricketers who ate out at a restaurant here, terming them “a malicious spin by a section of Australian media”.

A senior Indian cricket board official said that the visiting contingent is “well aware” of the COVID-19 protocols and had not violated any of them.

“The Australian media at times acts as an extension of their cricket team,” the BCCI official said.

With due respect, you also claimed before that 3rd test will NOT be in Sydney as people are not allowed to travel New South Wales from other states. But as it stands, 3rd test will be in Sydney as scheduled.

Now you are saying 4th test in Brisbane in doubt. So why should be believe you this time?

Clearly a BCCI source - knee jerk reaction which they will now try and hide.
 
In case it's a breach in protocol, all 5 should be put into isolation and barred from any play for remaining two matches. If it has been agreed upon earlier that they should not be going to in house restaurants and if theh failed to adhere to that then it's a disciplinary issue and should be liable to penalty (fine and ban for the rest of the series at the least) regardless of how talented they are or how critical they are to the composition of the team. All 5 are matured individuals and along with the team manager should be held accountable if found non compliant.
 
Wait a second.

When did Rohit Sharma become vice captain of the TEST team?

BCCI per usual will threat of cancelling the tour and all of this will be overlooked. BCCI has done this in the past in Australia so no news here guys.
 
Thats poor stuff. It has happened during the series unlike Pak in NZ which was also irresponsible but, was sorted before the series. It can cause problems for the boards but, considering how important the series is in terms of revenue for broadcasters and Australian cricket I am not sure how strictly it will be looked into unless govt gets involved.

Would this even be identified if fan didnt post the pics? Pretty poor management of the bubble I must say when breaches are being captured by outsiders.

For the posters talking by laws for general public, they should realize there are separate rules for the teams playing the series and are kept in a bio-secure bubble so that there is low probability of any breach from outside which can cause infections within the teams and thus potentially sabotaging the tour.
 
And Patheticc , also the bill had beef? Man they are going to be grilled when they get back lol.
 
So this is the difference between Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli..
 
What a bunch of morons! Couldn't they just stay in their hotel for a few more days? How difficult is it to get all those items delivered to your rooms? Maybe they should be dropped for the next test to teach them a lesson.

And who is this idiot fan who posts such cringey information to the world.
