The clause makes it mandatory for every athlete to furnish details of their whereabouts in advance and has come in for criticism from several quarters worldwide.

The 'whereabouts clause', as it is known, requires players to give information about their location three months in advance for one hour every day for five days a week for out of competition tests. In case of a change of plan, the players can update WADA officials about it through e-mail or sms.

'I think WADA is a very valid clause. I don't see anyone having a problem with it. The information about cricketers will not be made public. It will be kept confidential. It is not that everyone will know about cricketer's whereabouts,' he said.
