The Board of Control for Cricket in India has spelt out a strict diet chart for the Indian cricketers, keeping in mind their fitness concerns for the series against Pakistan.
And Mahendra Singh Dhoni & Co. will have to do without desserts, red meat and deep fried stuff.
No ice-cream, no peanuts, minimum fat content and no deep fried food-that is how the BCCI's menu for the Indian team for the Pakistan series reads. The Indian Express got hold of the diet chart a day before it is supposed to be circulated among Team India members at the preparatory camp in Kolkata.
The BCCI has also laid out a special diet for the players just for training days- mostly fresh fruits and fruit juice.
Some pointers from the diet chart
•NO visible fat/oil in food preparations (Instruction to caterers)
