N. Srinivasan has apologised to the Supreme Court on Friday for attending a Board of Control for Cricket in India working committee meeting in spite of a court order asking him to stay away from Board affairs till his "conflict of interest" charges were cleared. Kapil Sibal, Srinivasan's lawyer, also told the Supreme Court bench that the ICC chairman will not participate in the BCCI AGM on March 2. It effectively means Srinivasan will not be able to contest the BCCI elections. He was seeking a second term as Board president.

There is no way his chamchas will come to power. BJP is the king maker, they have 8 votes and they have clearly said they won't support him or his proxies. In fact most media has declared this a no-contest http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/icc-world-cup-2015/top-stories/BCCI-elections-may-throw-up-a-no-contest/articleshow/46391605.cms
The much-awaited Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), slated for March 2 in Chennai, is unlikely to witness an electoral battle. With the ruling faction, led by N Srinivasan, and the rival group, headed by Sharad Pawar, both hopelessly placed in the numbers game, the elections to the world's richest cricket body is set to be called by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) which is in a position to directly or indirectly influence at least eight votes in a 31-member house. There is still no unanimity over the choice of candidates for BCCI's top post, but there is ample indication that the ruling party at the Centre is dead against backing the Srinivasan faction, which stands thoroughly discredited in the highest court of the land following a long-drawn inquiry into the IPL 6 scandal. Arun Jaitley could play a key role in this regard. Hectic parleys are expected over the next two days after the finance minister finishes putting final touches to the Union Budget. Pawar's assertion on Wednesday that he would not brook either the continuation of BCCI president-in-exile Srinivasan or any attempt by him to rule by proxy by installing one of his loyalists, seems to have found support in the ruling party. The BJP is expected to make its stand clear by Saturday. It is likely that it may either go with NCP supremo Pawar, a former ICC and BCCI chief, or back a 'neutral' pan el headed by either Jagmohan Dalmiya or Rajeev Shukla in a bid to cleanse the country's cricket administration. While Dalmiya's failing health is a matter of concern, Shukla's Congress links may hinder his candidature. In either case, it will be a no-contest because the numbers will add up nicely for any panel that gets the BJP's blessings. For the record, the BJP can influence the votes in DDCA (Delhi), Himachal, Gujarat, Andhra and Jharkhand besides the three government institutions -- Railways, Services and Universities. Needless to say, any panel which gets these eight votes will have no problems in mustering a simple majority which translates to 16 votes at the AGM. Moreover, the panel backed by the BJP will also attract the traditional fence-sitters, who are known to switch allegiance in order to remain on the right side of the Establishment, reducing the electoral battle to a no-contest. If BJP makes its stand clear in the next 48 hours, there is a good chance that the panel backed by the party will sail through unopposed as the other factions may shy away from exposing their 'loyalists' in a lost cause. As things stand, the Srinivasan camp has the support of seven associations, while the Pawar faction can bank on the support of nine. If the BJP throws its weight behind the neutral panel, expect a majority of the Pawar group to follow suit. Either which way, it could signal two things: End of the Srinivasan era in the BCCI and yet another electoral victory for BJP.

from what i am hearing they are leaning towards Pawar for this 6 Rajya sabha seats.

With the backing of former BCCI chief Shashank Manohar and other anti-Srinivasan group members, Pawar was waiting for the BJP to clear its stand on supporting a consensus candidate. After reportedly being assured of ruling BJP support on Wednesday evening, Pawar on Thursday reached out to veteran cricket administrator and former BCCI and ICC chief Jagmohan Dalmiya. "The two discussed the present crisis in BCCI in detail amongst other things. Dalmiyaji offered full support for Sahib (as Pawar is addressed by his party men)," a Pawar group member told dna on Thursday. It was after getting assurance from Dalmiya – who controls two votes of Cricket Association of Bengal and National Cricket Club – that Pawar asked his supporters to reach Chennai on Saturday.

With Pawar coming back i think DY patil stadium will be back into play. Pawar is living on borrowed time. The affiliates under the Mumbai cricket association are either in the hands of the BJP or the Shiv Sena. Sena and BJP will push for Dillip Vengsarkar to challenge Pawar next election time. This is the final swan song of Sharad Pawar.
