'Shouldn't Encourage Such Security Breaches'
As the Vice President of the BCCI, you shouldn’t encourage such security breaches by fans under the guise of 'fan following.' God forbid, if something goes wrong with a player tomorrow, who will be held responsible? Please improve the security arrangements.
