Mumbai, April 29: The Mumbai Cricket Association will raise the issue of humiliation inflicted on former India captain Nari Contractor at this season’s IPL final at the upcoming BCCI working committee.
Contractor returned to his South Mumbai home without witnessing the IPL final on April 25 at D Y Patil stadium as the ticket he carried was declared invalid.
The MCA had got the ticket from the IPL authorities.
“We have written a letter to BCCI that many of our guests were stopped at the gate of the D Y Patil Stadium though they had valid tickets for the final as the persons manning the entry points declared them as fake,” MCA’s joint secretary Lalchand Rajput told PTI today.
“It needed my personal call to IPL CEO Sundar Raman before they were allowed in after a long wait, but Contractor had, by then, returned home.
