India rejects Majid
NEW DELHI, Jan 8: Cricket’s world governing body was Tuesday battling another crisis after India rejected the composition of a commission to probe the Mike Denness affair.
The commission was to have been set up last month to determine whether match referee Denness was justified in penalising six Indian players, including superstar Sachin Tendulkar, for misconduct during the Port Elizabeth Test against South Africa in November.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) put forward the names of two former players, Majid Khan (Pakistan) and Andrew Hilditch (Australia), as members of the commission.
Jagmohan Dalmiya, last week rejected these names, and proposed two former Australian captains, Richie Benaud and Ian Chappell, instead.—AFP
