London, November 15
The International Cricket Council today suspended its two-Test ban on Indian captain Saurav Ganguly and said it would ask a member of its Code of Conduct Commission to examine the possible appeal by the Board of Council for Cricket in India (BCCI) against the punishment.
“He (Ganguly) is permitted to play international cricket pending the outcome of the appeal,” the ICC said in a media release posted on its website.
The ICC said it had received a notice from the BCCI stating its intention to appeal against the suspension of Ganguly from two Tests.
“Should the BCCI proceed with the appeal, the ICC will appoint a member of the ICC Code of Conduct Commission to hear the case. The ICC Code of Conduct Commission member will have seven days to hear and determine the appeal,” it said.
