BCCI gets its way, CSA suspends Lorgat

Lorgat's removal may pave the way for India's tour.
Days after David Becker, a legal advisor to Cricket South Africa (CSA), launched a verbal attack on the N. Srinivasan-led BCCI, the CSA suspended their CEO Haroon Lorgat, media reports said. It is a development that would be seen as an attempt by the CSA to appease India to ensure their upcoming visit goes glitch-free. Lorgat's exit may bring to an end a long, bitter episode between the BCCI and CSA.

It is learnt the ICC will call for an independent probe into Becker's statements. There has not been an official version of these developments from the CSA or the ICC yet. Lorgat, is it reported, will no longer be part of the CSA's dealings with the ICC or BCCI.

wow. surely strong arm tactics.

I hope they unnastan that other nations will respond !

This is a joke, surely.


The ICC will jump on the Lawyer but do nothing about India's interference in another Board's appointments.


I have long admired India for their innovations and opening up the Commercial aspects of Cricket but this just is not cricket.


This with trying to muzzle commentators are two examples of gross misconduct and an abuse of power and office.


Totally shameful and I do not believe other nations will respond Ketch.
