Happy that N Srinivasan is out, says Sharad Pawar

Former BCCI chief, sacked IPL commissioner Lalit Modi laud Supreme Court verdict

Mumbai: Sharad Pawar, former Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president – who also served as the president of International Cricket Council – seemed happy with the Supreme Court barring BCCI chief-in-exile N Srinivasan from contesting the elections.

"Happy that Srinivasan is out. We will sit together and take corrective measures with Shashank Manohar or anybody who is interested. The regular measures will continue. We are interested to improve the administrative setup of cricket. Anybody can go to court if something goes wrong,” he said.

There is no opposition to BCCI coming under RTI from my side. There was a need to stop what was happening and this judgement will give us the power to do that,” he added.

On the other hand, sacked Indian Premier League (IPL) commissioner Lalit Modi said the verdict will clean up the sport.

In a series of tweets, he said: “Extremely happy with the Hon. Supreme Court judgement on Srinivasan.”
