Disputes Resolution Committee issues directions in BCCI process dispute

South Africa Constitutional Court Judge, Justice Albie Sachs, will refer to written submissions to assist him in determining the dispute raised by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) as to the process used in the appeal of an Indian player.

"I have considered the papers presented to me and the issues that they raise. In my view, most of the questions can be determined on the basis of the information provided in the papers," said Justice Sachs in his directions to the parties.

Justice Sachs has provided the BCCI and ICC until Wednesday 20 July to supply succinct additional written submissions concerning the provisions of the Code of Conduct and the process of imposing penalties. Each party will then be given until Friday 22 July to reply in writing to these submissions.

Justice Sachs, the sole member of this Disputes Resolution Committee, will then consider all the information and will determine the dispute as soon as is practicable.
