BCCI calls meeting over IPL spot-fixing June 2, 2013 - 1:08AM The Board of Control for Cricket in India will hold an emergency meeting in Chennai on Sunday to discuss the spot-fixing scandal in the India Premier League that led to the resignation of three top officials. "I've requested the president (Narainswamy Srinivasan) to call for an emergency meeting of the working committee and he has agreed," BCCI joint secretary Anurag Thakur said from New Delhi on Saturday. We've enough issues to discuss and all of them will be discussed at the meeting. BCCI secretary general Sanjay Jagdale and treasurer Ajay Shirke resigned on Friday, indicating they were hurt at recent developments but refused to give specific reasons. "It became my responsibility to initiate a call for the meeting once the secretary resigned," Thakur said. IPL chairman Rajeev Shukla resigned on Saturday. "I've decided to quit as IPL chairman," Shukla said. It's a decision which I was pondering for some time. Sanjay Jagdale and Ajay Shirke resigned in the best interest of Indian cricket, and I thought this is the right time for me. There have been calls for Srinivasan to step down because his son-in-law and Chennai Super Kings official Gurunath Meiyappan has been arrested by police in the spot-fixing probe. But Srinivasan has refused, saying there is no allegation against him and he wouldn't influence the internal probe ordered by the BCCI. Test cricketer Shantakumaran Sreesanth and teammates Ajit Chandila and Ankeet Chavan were arrested two weeks ago for allegedly receiving money from bookmakers to manipulate parts of IPL games involving their Rajasthan Royals team. Their arrests were followed by those of a number of illegal bookmakers and led police to Meiyappan, who is suspected of giving out team information.
