HYDERABAD: In view of the test match between India and Bangladesh scheduled to be held at the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium here on February 9 as well as the ongoing tussle among various groups for control over the Hyderabad Cricket Association, the high court was on Thursday urged to appoint an administrator to ensure smooth conduct of the match.
Senior counsel S Niranjan Reddy made this appeal to a bench of Acting Chief Justice Ramesh Ranganathan and Justice Shameem Akther that was hearing a public interest petition filed by former player and practising advocate M Govind Reddy seeking cleansing of the cricket body and reviving the tradition of Hyderabad contributing good cricketers.
Appearing for the petitioner, the senior counsel described the HCA as a public entity and open to judicial scrutiny. He accused those running the association of mismanagement and urged the court to ensure that it was administered in tune with the recent guidelines issued by the Supreme Court and Lodha Committee that made far reaching recom mendations to clean up the cricket bodies and to bring in professionalism.
