Sreesanth to approach BCCI to lift ban

Sreesanth was last week exonerated in the 2013 spot-fixing IPL scandal by a Delhi Court

Kochi: He contemplated "suicide" during his time at Tihar Jail but pacer S Sreesanth is now hoping to sing the redemption song and would approach the BCCI for lifting the life ban imposed on him from playing cricket by the Board.

Sreesanth was last week exonerated in the 2013 spot-fixing IPL scandal by a Delhi Court.

"I have sought an appointment with BCCI Secretary Anurag Thakur. He has told a TV channel that I can file an application requesting to lift the ban.

"I am hopeful after indication from the higher-ups of the BCCI that it would consider my request. So I want to file an application. I am waiting for his (General Secretary Anurag Thakur) call. I hope the next meeting of the BCCI would take a favourable decision," Sreesanth told reporters here.
