BCCI excludes RCA from domestic programme

[Insidious]

BCCI excludes RCA from domestic programme The BCCI has omitted the Rajasthan Cricket Association from its domestic programme for the forthcoming season. A handbook of domestic programme covering all categories - Under-16, Under-19, Under-23, Ranji Trophy and women's tournaments - that has been circulated amongst all the affiliates does not mention Rajasthan. It raises question marks over the participation of a full member which has been entangled in various disputes with the parent body. The BCCI, however, insisted that Rajasthan had not been excluded or suspended from the domestic season. "We have kept a slot open [for them]. Depending on the government and internal board decision, it will be finalised," BCCI interim president Shivlal Yadav told ESPNcricinfo. "We want the boys to play. We want everybody to participate. Let us hope everything will be sorted and nobody misses out on playing." Yadav said the BCCI hasn't set any deadline, but the decision will have to be taken before the inter-state junior cricket tournaments start in early October. RCA deputy president Mehmood Abdi, who clarified that he had not yet seen the handbook, said nobody else apart from their committee would be able to represent RCA. "Ours is a duly elected and recognised body. We are the only association which can govern the game of cricket in the state of Rajasthan as per the Rajasthan Sports Act, so we cannot be deprived of all our privileges." The BCCI had recently formed an ad-hoc committee to look after cricketing affairs of four disputed associations, including RCA. The BCCI had suspended the RCA in May, minutes after former IPL chairman Lalit Modi had been announced as its elected president. Since Modi had been expelled from the BCCI, the board suspended the RCA for allowing him to contest elections. However, even while suspending RCA, the BCCI had stressed that cricket in the state won't be affected. "We will see that cricket is not affected and cricketers are not affected across all age groups," BCCI secretary Sanjay Patel had said. "The ad-hoc committee will work out how Rajasthan can play in BCCI tournaments. The boys and cricket should not suffer. That is our primary goal. The players do not need to worry. We will see how to make them comfortable."

Wait, BCCI has a problem because Lalit Modi was elected RCA president. But Srini being ICC chief is fantastic? BCCI also decided it does not want Haroon Lorgat as South African Board president, and it got its wish!

[JaiRamesh2]

Hopefully Lalit Modi goes on to setup a parallel cricket organisation across India.

This is why indian cricket is a mess right now- crisis on the field and all BCCI bhabhus can think about is their petty power games

There wont be any ad hoc committee because the Raje Govt. Sports act wont recognise any such committees and have already said they will start legal proceedings againist them.BCCI cant do anything there and may be prosecuted by the Rajasthan govt. for breaking laws.

I am losing respect for BCCI. LThey should find a way to work with Lalit Modi as he was smart enough to start IPL.

Stop being an idiotic troll all the time By the way you keep repeating the same joke again and again in different forms is not actually funny. Notice no one laughs with you which shows no one finds the same joke over and over funny. You need some new punch lines. Are you capable?
