Court rejects cricket board’s plea against Punjab Kings XI
By IANSWednesday, December 15, 2010
MUMBAI - The Bombay High Court Wednesday dismissed an appeal by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) against a stay order on the termination notice served to Indian Premier League (IPL) franchisee Punjab Kings XI, terming the notice as incorrect.
The development comes a day after the court quashed the BCCI’s termination notice against another IPL franchisee Rajasthan Royals.
Expressing happiness at the outcome, Punjab Kings XI team’s owners - industrialist Ness Wadia and actress Preity Zinta - told mediapersons that their stand had been vindicated.
“We had always maintained that we were right since 2008. We support the BCCI and shall continue to do so to make IPL-4 stronger,” Wadia added.
