'If I were Chris Lynn, I'd have taken them to court': Chappell's no-nonsense remark on Cricket Australia over UAE league
Hindustan TimesThe UAE-based International League T20, which starts in 2023, has stirred up a lot of interest among cricketers across the globe. Among many other cricketers, Australia's Chris Lynn had also registered himself for the league as a marquee player; however, his participation could be in doubt if a No Objection Certificate is not issued from Cricket Australia. Former Australia Captain Ian Chappell has now commented on the issue, stating that he would have taken Cricket Australia ‘to court’ if he wasn't issued an NOC. In Chris Lynn’s case, if he hasn’t got a contract with Cricket Australia or Cricket Queensland, what’s to stop him? If you’ve got a decent IPL contract and the choice is between Australia and your IPL franchise’s UAE team, well are you going to put your IPL contract at risk?"
