The suspensions on cricketers all- rounder Hardik Pandya and batsman K L Rahul have been lifted by the Committee of Administrators (CoA). This comes after two weeks when they were sent home from the tour of Australia due to their sexist comments on a TV show kofee with karan hosted by Karan Johar.
The CoA, after consulting new amicus curiae P S Narsimha, decided to lift the suspension pending an inquiry, for which an ombudsman is to be appointed by the Supreme Court. The apex court has listed the matter tentatively for February 5.
“The above matter and decision has been taken with the concurrence of the Learned Amicus Curiae, Mr. P.S. Narasimha. In view of the above, the suspension orders dated 11.01.2019 is immediately lifted pending appointment and adjudication of the allegations by the BCCI Ombudsman,” read a statement of CoA, issued by the BCCI.
Pandya is now expected to join the team in New Zealand while Rahul might play in either domestic circuit or show up for India A in an ongoing home series against England Lions.
