Indian board ties up with IIT Bombay for soil research

Filed under:

The Indian board has tied up with Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Mumbai to test soil from various centres, with a view to gaining some scientific knowledge about pitch preparation.

There was a lot of criticism regarding pitches for sometime now. So, the BCCI has taken up the issue very seriously. It is our main project for the year, the Chief Administrative Officer Ratnakar Shetty was quoted as saying in Mid-Day, a Mumbai-based tabloid.

We have approached the Civil Engineering department of the IIT to get the soil tested. Thats just the first phase. They will submit their findings in a few days. We are looking to have a long-term association with them.
