IPL expected to dominate BCCI Working Committee meet

Mumbai, May 01: The focus would be firmly on the alleged financial irregularities committed by suspended IPL Commissioner Lalit Modi when the Indian Cricket Board’s all-powerful Working Committee meets here tomorrow.

BCCI President Shashank Manohar would brief thecommittee members about the various issues surrounding IPL, which is under the Income Tax and Enforcement Directorate’s scanner for alleged violations of various laws, but there would not be any discussion of these at the sitting, BCCI sources insisted.

“The Board President would inform the members of the Working Committee the happenings in the IPL and why Mr Modi needed to be suspended, but there would not be any discussions,” the sources told PTI.
