Board chief told to step down

THE Supreme Court of India has told Indian cricket board chief N. Srinivasan to step down from his post or be forced to leave to ensure a fair investigation into charges of match-fixing in the Indian Premier League.

Srinivasan’s son-in-law, Gurunath Meiyappan, was indicted last month on charges of betting and passing on information to illegal bookmakers by a committee investigating match-fixing in the IPL. Supreme Court Justice A. K. Patnaik said yesterday if Srinivasan does not step down voluntarily from the Board of Control for Cricket in India, the court will order his removal.
