BCCI: The BCCI working committee, which met in Chennai on Sunday, is unlikely to impose a life ban on the four cricketers allegedly involved in spot-fixing. <br /><br />The emergent working committee was called to discuss the implications of the involvement of Sreesanth, Ankeet Chavan, Ajit Chandila and Amit Singh in the spot-fixing controversy.<br /><br />While some may perceive it as inaction, the working committee's decision is influenced by a constitutional clause. According to the board's constitution, a life ban cannot be imposed on a cricketer, who breaches the players' code, for 30 days after an internal inquiry committee is constituted. <br /><br />"Taking that into account, it would be unjust to ban the players for life before the formal and internal investigations are completed," a BCCI functionary said, preferring anonymity. "That doesn't mean the BCCI is taking the matter lightly. Immediately after Delhi Police arrested these cricketers, the Board suspended all of them pending inquiry."
