RCA questions Shivlal's promotion



     Jaipur, Mar 28 (PTI) Welcoming Sunil Gavaskar's
appointment as interim president of BCCI for IPL 7, the
Rajasthan Cricket Association (RCA) today questioned the
promotion of senior vice-president Shivlal Yadav to the top
job after the cash-rich T20 league.
     The Supreme Court ordered that Gavaskar should be made
the interim president for managing affairs of IPL, while the
senior most vice-president -- Shivlal Yadav -- should take
care of the non-IPL affairs of the BCCI.
     Mehmood Abdi, a permanent RCA representative in BCCI and
more recognised as the lawyer of the former IPL commissioner
Lalit Modi, questioned the grounds of ascertaining seniority
in the cricket governing body.
     "RCA welcomes the order passed by Supreme Court ordering
veteran cricketer Sunil Gavaskar to take over as interim
president of BCCI and removal of disgraced BCCI Chief N
Srinivasan from the post of president till the SLP filed by
CAB is disposed off," Abdi said in a statement.
     "It has been suggested that Mr Shivlal Yadav would be
taking over as BCCI chief because of his seniority. What are
the grounds for finding out the seniority? Will it be
calculated on ground of experience, age, terms or time of
taking over the post or what?" asked Abdi.
     "The details of the interim order would be available
tomorrow but reports suggest that "senior most" vice president
would take over as president of BCCI so these are the valid
questions."
     Abdi said it was shameful that things which should have
been done by the BCCI reached the highest court of the land.
     "Despite having the opportunity to devise internal
mechanism for checking aberrations and violations of system
the current dispensation turned a blind eye to the conflict of
interest of Srinivasan, involvement of his son in law in match
fixing and host of other violations so much so that repeated
warnings when BCCI failed to rise up to the occasion the apex
court had to intervene," he said.
     "I feel the BCCI members must have learnt a lesson and
would try and resist Srinivasan. There certainly would be
changes in BCCI equations now and after the final order of the
apex court N Srinivasan would be history and only be damned as
someone causing monumental damage to the game and ruining the
institution of BCCI."
