Rajasthan left out of domestic calendar

JAIPUR: When the BCCI suspended Rajasthan Cricket Association, it was a foregone conclusion that the state body's teams would not be included in the domestic tournaments for 2014-15.

However, with Sanjay Patel assuring that Rajasthan players would not suffer, there was still some hope for the Pankaj Singhs and Ashok Menarias.

The BCCI, in fact, went a step forward by selecting Pankaj Singh, Deepak Chahar and Abhimanyu Lamba, all Rajasthan-based medium-pacers, for the national teams. For a moment, it seemed that the players would indeed be spared in this standoff between the BCCI and the RCA.

That hope, however, evaporated when the BCCI announced its domestic calendar. RCA's name was nowhere to be found. Despite assurances from the BCCI, Rajasthan's players were set to suffer.

The two bodies have been engaged in a legal fight over electing the BCCI-banned Lalit Modi as the RCA president.

So what went wrong? Sources feel this is the BCCI's "reaction to the slight shown by the state government towards its ad-hoc committee", led by Brijesh Patel.

"Three senior BCCI executives had come to Jaipur to meet government officials to sort out the issue," a source told TOI.

"However, the government officials did not even extend them basic courtesies, forget about help. The state's chief secretary hardly gave them any time and the sports secretary made them wait in the court yard before meeting them."

In fact, the government officials indicated there was little they could do. "Not only were the basic courtesies missing, these officials were quite bullish," the source said. "If nothing else, you are at least expected to treat senior BCCI officials like Brijesh Patel and Anirudh Choudhary with some respect."

Now, what happens to the players?

Clearly, they will have to cool their heels till a solution is found.

There were some suggestions that the BCCI could have formed a 'Rajasthan' team. However, that is not possible as the Rajasthan State Sports Act does not permit that.

There are clauses which bars the use of the term 'Rajasthan' and any breach of the law in this regard is a punishable offence. Neither does the BCCI constitution allow an additional team in the domestic tournaments.

There could be a legal solution but the process is long drawn.
