Rendezvous Sports World (P) Limited, co-owner of Kochi franchise has finally decided to challenge the termination of Kochi Tuskers Kerala (KTK) from the Indian Premier League in court.
KTK was thrown out of the hugely popular league after just one season after it failed to honour its financial commitments to the Board of Control for Cricket in India on September 19 last year ‘on an irremediable breach in the terms of contract'.
A team of RSWPL was in the city the last couple of days seeking support for the revival of the team from State Chief Minister Oommen Chandy and Sports Minister K.B. Ganesh Kumar.
The move to take the BCCI to court, incidentally, comes just before the players' auction for the IPL season IV scheduled for Saturday.
The RSPWL through a release said it would get the Kochi team back into IPL. “RSWPL will be taking legal action against the termination of the franchise and is confident that it will be successful in getting the team to play this season.
