IPL Scandal: BCCI probe panel termed illegal by High Court.

The Bombay High Court (HC) has termed BCCI's probe panel -that investigated the IPL spot fixing scam- as illegal and unconstitutional. This decision by HC is seen as a major set back for N. Srinivasan who was set to return as BCCI President on the basis of the probe panel's findings.

BCCI's probe panel set up by the cricket control body to look into the allegations of spot fixing in the IPL season had virtually gave a clean chit to N. Srinivasan's son-in-law Gurunath Meiyappan. The Mumbai Police arrested Meiyappan in the spot fixing case after he was named by one of the co-accused Vindoo Dara Singh.

Indian cricketer Ashok Dinda married his sweetheart, Sreyasi Rudra on Monday at Chinsurah in the Hooghly district. The reception will be at a Kolkata club on July 24.

Dinda met Sreyasi at a friend's residence four years ago. But he admitted that they didn't hit it off straightaway.

"We met again after a few years at a party and I liked her, but we did not exchange numbers. After our third meeting, I took her number from a friend and we kept in touch. She is the most sober girl I've ever met. I made her meet my mom one and half years ago. I gave her hints about my feelings then, but she brushed me off. I kept pursuing her till she gave in," Dinda told a newspaper.

Zimbabwe and India were regular sparring partners in the mid to late nineties, but India have only visited the country thrice since 2000 and haven't invited the Zimbabweans over since 2002. For the hosts, the upcoming series could well be the marquee cricketing event of the year, and India also have their reasons to make the most out of this trip.

The presence of five potential one-day international debutants suggests that India are keen to try out a couple of new options, particularly with the ball, and the series will also allow Virat Kohli to add to his CV as the heir to the captaincy after mixed results at the helm in the Caribbean. These five games may not be entirely indicative of the future of the Indian team, but they will offer some enlightening clues.

The former Australian skipper, Ricky Ponting has rated West Indian batsman Brian Lara ahead of Indian master blaster Sachin Tendulkar as one of the all-time great batting legends. He also took a dig at Tendulkar's hundreds, saying that it has never been about making centuries.
