The contentious \u2018conflict of interest\u2019 issue is set to be discussed by past cricketers during an informal meeting to be held at the BCCI headquarters here on Monday. Several top cricketers are expected to attend the meeting in the presence of at least one Committee of Administrators member. They are expected to deliberate on the issue at length.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is understood that former India batsman Dilip Vengsarkar and pacer Ajit Agarkar would attend the meeting. Even the likes of VVS Laxman and Rahul Dravid are expected to attend it.Former India off-spinner Harbhajan Singh will not attend the Monday meeting but has already shot off a letter to the Board giving his views on the subject.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to a complaint filed by Sanjeev Gupta, a life member of the Madhya Pradesh Cricket Association, Dravid was allegedly conflicted as he was the National Cricket Academy director and also employed as vice-president of the India Cements Group, which owns the IPL franchise Chennai Super Kings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The CoA has, however, cleared Dravid\u2019s appointment as Head of Cricket at the NCA, ruling that there is \u201cno conflict of interest\u201d case against him.Thogde said on August 13 that the ball is now in BCCI Ombudsman-cum-ethics officer DK Jain\u2019s court to take a final decision in the matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even Ganguly in the past was served a \u2018conflict of interest\u2019 notice. Later, the CoA had dissolved the earlier CAC comprising Tendulkar, Laxman and Ganguly. Tendulkar had refused to be a part of the panel till he was given terms of reference. Instead, the COA formed a new CAC comprising 1983 World Cup winning skipper Kapil Dev, Anshuman Gaikwad and former women\u2019s team captain Shantha Rangaswamy, who reappointed Ravi Shastri as the men\u2019s team coach till the end of T20 World Cup to be held in India in 2021.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
