BCCI Drops Ravi Shastri from IPL Panel, Roger Binny as Selector - The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has removed Ravi Shastri, who is the director of Team India till the T20 World Cup next year, from the Indian Premier League (IPL) governing council.

On Monday, the decision to drop Shastri was taken at the BCCI's annual general meeting in Mumbai. At the same time, on similar ground of conflict of interest, Roger Binny has been dropped from the senior national selectors' panel.

Former wicket-keeper MSK Prasad has replaced Binny. Binny represented South Zone on the selection panel. Moreover, Rajinder Singh Hans (Central Zone) has also been replaced by Gagan Khoda. Sandeep Patil will continue to remain as chairman.

The BCCI has also appointed former Chief Justice of India AP Shah as an ombudsman to manage all cases of conflict of interest featuring administrators, former and current payers involved with Indian cricket.

The BCCI under new president Shashank Manohar has come down hard on issue of conflict of interest. The Supreme Court, while barring former president N. Srinivasan from contesting BCCI elections, has been tough on cricket administrators wearing multiple hats and having commercial interest in the game.
