BCCI chief meets Pawar on IPL issue

BCCI President Shashank Manohar today flew into the capital to hold discussions with former cricket board chief Sharad Pawar in the wake of the raging controversy surrounding the cash-awash Indian Premier League.


A close aide of Manohar confirmed that the BCCI chief will meet Pawar and some other board officials during his stay here.



Manohar's visit comes amid reports that the top brass of BCCI are planning to remove controversial Lalit Modi from the post of IPL Commissioner and Chairman.

The meeting also assumes significance as Pawar is said to be backing Modi.

The Cricket Board has also rescheduled its Working Committee meeting from April 24 to May 2 as it wants the IPL Governing Council -- which is expected to meet here on April 26, a day after the IPL final -- to first discuss the issue.
