SCThe Supreme Court has asked the Board of Control for Cricket in India, BCCI to implement the recommendations of Justice R M Lodha Committee which has suggested a massive restructuring of the country’s apex cricket body.

The apex court yesterday said the recommendations are straight, rational and understandable and deserve respect. It observed that there is no reason to disagree with the committee which has the most illuminated and respected members of the legal community.

The remarks by a bench headed by Chief Justice T S Thakur came after the BCCI, sought another four weeks time, saying there was a need to consult the 30-odd members of the Board on the recommendations.

The bench, which also comprised Justice F M I Kalifulla said they all have been heard and have given their views to the Committee and now decks must be cleared for complete reform.
