New Delhi: The Supreme Court yesterday made it clear that all state cricket associations have to ‘fall in line’ with recommendations of Justice R M Lodha led-panel on structural reforms in BCCI which was carried out in the wake of match-fixing and spot-fixing allegations.

“Once BCCI is reformed it will go down the line and all cricket associations will have to reform itself if they want to associate with it. The committee constituted in wake of match-fixing and spot-fixing allegations was a serious exercise and not futile exercise,” a bench headed by Chief Justice TS Thakur said.
