I have gone through a planned physical transformation after having hormone treatment for the last few years. This report exhibits the actual effect of my transformation. It is not anybody's opinion or guesswork, it is just information."

Anya Appeals to BCCI and ICC

She went on to add, "I will present this report to the BCCI and the ICC with hope and transparency. I would like to discuss it with them on the basis of facts.
