Welcoming Sunil Gavaskar’s appointment as interim president of BCCI for IPL 7, Rajasthan Cricket Association (RCA) on Friday questioned the promotion of senior vice-president Shivlal Yadav to the top job after the cash-rich T20 league.
Mehmood Abdi, a permanent RCA representative in BCCI and more recognised as the lawyer of former IPL commissioner Lalit Modi, questioned the grounds of ascertaining seniority in the cricket governing body.
‘It has been suggested that 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? The details of the interim order would be available on Saturday but reports suggest that ‘senior most’ vice-president would take over as president of BCCI so these are the valid questions,’ said Abdi.
