Mumbai Cricket Association News

Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) has denied intervening in Mumbai player Ankeet Chavan's case after the Mumbai player in his letter requested the state association board to revoke his ban. The association has asked Chavan to visit the court and obtain the order by citing Sreesanth's example.

Lalchand Rajput, the former head of the Cricket Improvement Committee (CIC) of the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA), has claimed that MCA secretaries interfered in selection of Mumbai XI in SMAT 2020/21. Rajput has asserted that the secretaries ‘forced’ selectors to pick certain players in the XI.

Chairman of the CIC, Lalchand Rajput has warned members of the Mumbai Cricket Association to not throw around the name of Sachin Tendulkar unnecessarily to get the work done. He explained that there is no confusion between the CEO and secretary and the convenor will only convene the meeting. 

Lalchand Rajput has vowed to instil much-need ‘accountability’ in the Mumbai Cricket Association, with it being the first step to taking MCA back to the top. He also admitted that his committee would work closely with him to appoint the right person for the right job to help Mumbai cricket.
