New Delhi: Arguments concluded, verdict reserved for January 2015. As lawyers representing the Board of Control for Cricket (BCCI) and the Cricket Association of Bihar (CAB) walked out of the precincts of the Supreme Court, many wondered whether — for the first time — the country's apex court will truly clean the game's dirty underbelly.


Former India captains Kris Srikkanth (left) & Sunil Gavaskar were among those named by BCCI as administrators having commercial interests in the game  

There is a lot at stake, ostensibly because the Supreme Court will announce its verdict on the controversial Rule 6.2.4 of BCCI's Constitution, besides pronouncing whether Srinivasan can contest the BCCI presidential elections and what action should be taken against those named in the final probe report submitted by the Justice Mukul Mudgal Committee.
