BCCI set to try out a new software to detect age fraud at the U-16 level
BCCI to introduce new “BoneXpert software” to detect age fraud at Under-16 level. The new software will make age verification of a player quicker and less expensive.
BCCI runs various types of camps at different levels, in which many times the scam of young cricketers comes to the fore. Many players play in the younger team by making fake certificates, so now BCCI has taken a big step in this matter. BCCI is working on a software, which will detect the players who give fake age.
According to PTI, with the help of this software, fake age will also be detected and according to the current budget, 80 percent of the amount will also be saved. BCCI currently uses TW3 technology regarding this matter. At present, it costs Rs 2400 to conduct this test, which takes 3-4 days to get the result. Now with the bone-expert software that BCCI is bringing, this result will come in just Rs 288.
The board has informed that at present only the state associations conduct the test of the players, which is done in the presence of the observers of the BCCI. After the test is done here, the sample is sent to the experts, after which its results come out. It takes three to four days, because if such tests are in large number, then it takes more than a month to get the result of any one state association.
