three alkyl groups has to be attached with boron atom so borob will prefer the less stearically hindered site so OH group comes on less steric hindered carbon atom
Does Hydroboaration oxidation has to do something to do with sterichinderance??Why??

dude. I dunno . yaar . lekin , mera ek doubt hai , is me hi .
propene ko hydrolyse kare to , propanol milega na ? yahan . streic hindrance kahan hai???
It's a concerted process. check it out in wiki . steric hindrance doesn't matter much .
It follows anti markownikoff addition . that's all I know.

dude...
in this reaction products are formed in anti markonikoff way without violating the markonikoff's rule.
