More than a year after parting ways with the Deccan Chargers, the IPL franchise's former CEO Tim Wright has filed a 10 million pound lawsuit against it, alleging breach of contract.

According to a report in 'The Daily Telegraph', the lawsuit also "accuses Deccan of illegal payments to an unnamed player which broke the IPL's salary cap rules." "It alleges Wright's severance clause of 10 million pounds was not honoured and that his position was undermined when the franchise appointed KPMG to find a buyer for the Deccan Chargers while telling their chief executive it was not for sale," the report said.
