The Committee of Administrators (CoA) on Friday decided in unison that any State unit trying to sabotage Indian Premier League matches will face harsh punishment and the matter will be taken up at the appropriate legal forum.
The CoA feels that the State units are trying to feed misinformation as they have never ever been required to spend any money from their coffers for arranging IPL matches.
In fact, a top BCCI source abreast with CoA meeting said that it was found out that the State units are blatantly lying as it is the BCCI and franchises which share the cost of hosting association on a 50-50 basis and not the State units.
Vikram Limaye, like the last time, will be representing BCCI at the ICC Board meeting, while CEO Rahul Johri will be present at the chief executives meeting. It was Amitabh Chaudhary, joint secretary, BCCI, who was India’s representative in the chief executives’ meeting in the first week of February.
The Supreme Court hearing on March 20 also came up for discussion.
