Yuvraj Singh has been rewarded for his stellar World Cup with a Grade A contract from the BCCI for 2011-12, a year after being demoted to Grade B, while Virat Kohli and Ishant Sharma have both been given Grade A contracts for the first time. Rohit Sharma moves up from Grade C to B, as does R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja, but Ashish Nehra, who had a Grade B contract, does not make the list of contacted players at all.
The contracts were awarded at the BCCI's Working Committee meeting, held in Kolkata today. The committee also voted to classify the IPL as List A cricket, and registered their opposition to the new sports bill being promulgated by the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sport.
