Bombay HC hears TCA-BCCI case

Mumbai:The matter of Telangana Cricket Association (TCA) vs Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) came up for hearing on Monday before the Hon’ble Division Bench of the Bombay High Court. This hearing follows the Hon’ble Court’s order dated 27 January 2026, during which BCCI submitted before the Court that it had no objection to implementing the BCCI Order dated 11 July 2021.

• Justice P. Naveen Rao (Retd.) has submitted his report in a sealed cover to the Hon’ble Court regarding the joint meeting held between the parties.

• When the Hon’ble Bench sought to know BCCI’s position and the steps it proposes to take following the meeting and the submissions of both associations, BCCI requested time till 6th April to respond.
