Maxwell brushes off 145;team146; hotel controversy

One report had claimed that the domestic players in the squad had been moved out to 8216;save costs8217;, while another said that they had been shifted to accomodate visiting celebrities.

But Maxwell said that theirs was the only team to have the same set of guidelines for the entire bunch of 29 players, whether they were among the 16 picked for a game or the reserves.

8220;We could have asked the reserve guys to spend time at home but we think they should spend time with the international players. It is not possible to accommodate everyone at the main hotel. Even the Mumbai Indians will be staying in another hotel when they come here,8221; Maxwell said.

Owners of the team were not available for comments.
