New Delhi: The Supreme Court appointed Justice Lodha Committee is all set to render its verdict and announce the quantum of punishment for Gurunath Meiyappan and Raj Kundra and their respective Indian Premier League (IPL) franchises vis-a-vis the spot fixing and betting scandal that rocked the Twenty20 tournament in 2013. The Lodha Committee will decide the punishment for Gurunath Meiyappan and CSK. Chennai Super Kings (CSK) team official Meiyappan and Rajasthan Royals co-owner Kundra were found guilty of betting in the 2013 edition of the Twenty20 cricket tournament. In a press release, the Committee said: “The verdict of the Justice Lodha Committee is to be rendered on Tuesday 14th July at Silver Oak-II in the India Habitat Centre, Lodhi Road. This will be at 1:00 pm.†The Supreme Court on January 22 had set up the committee comprising former Chief Justice of India R.M. Lodha, former Justice Ashok Bhan and former Justice R. Raveendran to determine appropriate punishments for Meiyappan, Kundra and their respective franchises. In March, the panel had also issued showcause notices to Meiyappan and Kundra seeking their reply on the quantum of punishment. Meiyappan is the son-in-law of former Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president and current International Cricket Council (ICC) chairman N. Srinivasan.

On Sundar Raman, we feel that investigation requires more work: Justice Lodha
Not for us to say if the CSK team can continue playing if India Cements sells its share in the team - Lodha

All the players should be re-auctioned. This is something like a breakup of CSK and RR as we know . I am not sure whether they can reach such heights as a team again just as breakp of Chicago bulls did.

Players are free. They will not be attached to a particular team of the franchise that is suspended: Justice Lodha

Can players play for other franchicies? I mean the likes of Raina, Faf, Dhoni, Nehra, Bravo, Watson, Rahane etc. are top players in T20's. Why should they suffer for deeds of others?
