BCCI eserves judgement on Shane Warne and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sanjay-c88566 Dixit feud
The Board of Control for Cricket in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Rajasthan-c837 Cricket Association’s (RCA) Secretary Sanjay Dixit has decided to reserve its judgement.
The three member panel that conducted the hearing included Indian Premier League (IPL) http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Ravishankar-Jayadritha-Shastri-c84254, and, IMG's legal counsel, John Loffhagen.
Both Warne and Dixit attended the hearing and gave their account of events the led to the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Adam-Griffith-c919 spat of words between the two after Rajasthan Royal’s loss in an IPL match.
Revealing details of the hearing, which convened behind closed http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Peter-Willey-c81951 wait for the judgement as I still don't know when it's going to come".
It is still not clear when the BCCI will make the judgment of the hearing public, however, according to an insider it will be released soon.
Warne, who is the skipper of the Rajasthan Royals was accompanied by RR’s CEO, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Robert-Sean-Millner-Morris-c86168, and left immediately after the hearing, which lasted for about three hours.
Earlier last week, Warne was seen arguing with RCA secretary for not providing his team with favourable pitches to play on in home games. Warne blamed Dixit for the loss of his side in Wednesday’s game and was heard calling the RCA secretary a liar and egotistic.
It was the owner of the Rajasthan Royals, Shilpa Shetty, who had to jump between the two to defuse the situation. Later Dixit requested the RCA to launch an inquiry against Warne.
Meanwhile, the RCA secretary also provided text messages to the BCCI and IPL officials as evidence to his claims that Warne had been pressurizing him to give pitches according to his liking.
The RCA has also claimed that it is seeking criminal charges against the RR skipper for abusing Dixit in public. However, after the BCCI hearing things are expected to tone down and the Indian cricket board will seek to calm things and prevent any such incidents from happening in future.
Warne will be retiring from all formats of cricket after the conclusion of this year’s IPL.
