Having appeared before the Justice Mudgal Committee, I had suggested that the Chennai Super Kings franchise be suspended or derecognised. But I doubt it will happen, because in India, what happens is when a case becomes untenable, the small fish in the pond are the ones who are consumed while the sharks somehow manage to go scot-free.

I am certain about the fact that CSK must be disbanded. There is no question about it. But if I know the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) even a little bit — and I have known them for years — then they will show that Gurunath Meiyappan was not the Team Principal. They will show he was not in a position in the team management, and this-or-that particular clause does not apply to him.
