Srinivasan stays in exile, BCCI AGM on Sept 29

Kolkata, Sept 1: Fearing legal repercussions, N Srinivasan today refrained from staging a comeback as BCCI President but attended the Board’s working committee meeting which decided to have its crucial Annual General Meeting on September 29 in Chennai.
There was intense speculation ahead of the meeting on whether Srinivasan, who had stepped aside in the wake of the IPL spot-fixing scandal, will regain control of the Board as he aims for a second term at the helm.
Srinivasan was in attendance as President of the Tamil Nadu Cricket Association, while interim chief Jagmohan Dalmiya chaired the working committee meeting which also ratified the audited accounts of the Board.
Though Dalmiya chaired the meeting, Srinivasan presided when matters concerning the accounts were taken up.
The working committee decided that Dalmiya will continue to oversee the Board’s day-to-day functioning till the AGM in Chennai.(PTI)
