BCCI not happy with ban on Shahrukh Khan?

The Board of Control for Cricket in India is likely to stop the ban on Bollywood actor and IPL franchise Kolkata Knight Riders co-owner, Shahrukh Khan. It is known that Mumbai Cricket Association banned the Bollywood actor over the scuffle between the actor and security personnel. But, some people predicted the possibility of political pressure on MCA to ban Shahrukh Khan from Wankade Stadium in Mumbai for five years.

Notably, Shahrukh Khan’s contribution to BCCI has been by and large singular. He has been promoting the IPL besides earning lots of revenue to BCCI and even the cricketers as IPL literally changed the life style of cricketers. It not only lifted the lives of many cricketers, but also gave golden chances to many new cricketers. Thanks to Shahrukh Khan who had always been one of the pillars behind promoting the game. When everyone literally questioned the ideal of Twenty-20 crickets, when the criticism was air against the Indian Premier League, Shahrukh Khan went ahead and purchase Kolkata Knight Riders at a whopping 300 crore rupees. Besides this, he also helped BCCI in making profits.  It was SRK who even assisted BCCI when the council was in a dilemma whether or not to increase IPL teams.

He also became a negotiator between BCCI and Sahara India Parivar when there were misunderstandings. BCCI and Sahara both welcomed the negotiations of Shahrukh Khan that turn out to be fruitful. BCCI is the sole governing body when it comes to taking final decisions. So, the ban by MCA on Shahrukh’s entry into Wankede for five years have to come before the BCCI for the final approval and the sources said BCCI was not happy with the decision taken by MCA and hence it will presumably not entertain the ban on Shahrukh Khan.

Shahrukh Khan is not only supported by his fans, cricketers and Bollywood personalities in this matter, but even political leaders extended their support to him. RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav who was not happy with SRK’s ban has said IPL should be removed. Even West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee too appealed MCI to reconsider their decision. Why Mumbai Cricket Association went to an extent of filing case against Shahrukh Khan when the matter could be discussed peacefully is another million dollar question that’s irking the fans of Shahrukh Khan besides puzzling many people in the political circle. To know how BCCI is going to act, we have keep our fingers crossed until for a couple of days. (Phani)
