Srinivasan return to BCCI chief?

A probe controlled by India cricket chiefs into a betting scandal in the Indian Premier League has found no wrongdoing, allowing the return of BCCI president N. Srinivasan, a source told AFP on Monday.

Srinivasan stepped aside for the moment as president of the BCCI on June 2 after his son-in-law Gurunath Meiyappan was arrested, and later released on bail, over alleged links to illegal bookmakers.

Meiyappan is a team owner of IPL contract Chennai Super Kings, a team bought by Srinivasan India Cements conglomerate when the league was launched in 2008.

The BCCI appointed two retired High Court judges, Jayaram Chouta and R. Balasubramanian, to conduct an internal probe into the participation of its members or of IPL owners.

Police have also questioned Raj Kundra, husband of Bollywood actor Shilpa Shetty and co-owner of the Rajasthan Royals franchise which 3players had arrested for alleged spot-fixing.

The probe report, which was submitted to BCCI acting Chief Jagmohan Dalmiya on Sunday, cleared Srinivasan India Cements, Rajasthan Royals, Meiyappa n and Kendraz of spot-fixing allegation, the source said.

There is nothing in the report to connect these people, a source told AFP on condition of secrecy.
I do not think we can, or have the right, to stop Srinivasan from coming back as president now, the highly-placed source said.

Sehwag,Gambhir,Yuvi and Zaheer offered World Cup lifeline

The 2015 World Cup is almost one-and-a-half years away, but the selectors have supposedly already identified nine players who will form the core of the Indian team, which will guard the title won in 2011 on home soil. However, as the World Cup will be co-hosted by Australia and New Zealand, the selectors also want experienced players to be part of the 15-man squad.

Report said that based on current form, MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli, Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Raina, R Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Ishant Sharma are likely to be the mainstay of the team for the 2015 World Cup unless injury forces any player out. The 9 were part of the 2013 Champions Trophy squad in England; a match that India won without losing one of their 5 matches.
The remaining six slots in the squad will be full on the basis of concentrations and fitness. This should give hope to the experienced foursome of Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Yuvraj Singh and Zaheer Khan, who have fallen out of favor and aren't at present part of India's team in any format.
