The Managing Committee of the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) on Thursday decided to slap a life ban on Akhtar Shaikh, after the club cricketer was exposed by mid-day for playing under a different name in Rajasthan's Rajwada Cricket League in 2017.
"The Managing Committee has decided to ban the cricketer for life from taking any part in MCA-affiliated tournaments," a top MCA official said.

Shaikh played the last Dr HD Kanga Cricket League for National Cricket Club, Cross Maidan in the 'A' division.
