Ankeet Chavan writes to BCCI, MCA to reconsider his life ban

India TV News  

Ankeet Chavan, who is serving a life ban for his alleged involvement in the 2013 IPL spot-fixing scandal, has urged the BCCI and the Mumbai Cricket Association to reduce the sanction to seven years in a letter written to them. In 2013, the BCCI disciplinary committee had found three Rajasthan Royals players -- former India pacer S Sreesanth, Chavan and Ajit Chandila -- guilty of spot-fixing in the IPL and handed them life bans. But in 2015, a trial court in Delhi dropped all the charges against the trio and last year the BCCI Ombudsman DK Jain reduced Sreesanth’s ban to seven years from life ban. "I am urging to BCCI on similar lines, if Sreesanth’s ban is reconsidered, kindly reconsider mine as well," Chavan told PTI on Thursday.
