June 04, 2013 18:42

The BCCI's general manager for game development, Ratnakar Shetty, has been banned by the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) for five years. Shetty was banned for making allegations against MCA members over selling of tickets in the black market. He was BCCI's first paid official when he was named Chief Administrative Officer in 2006.

Shetty had claimed that the MCA had made an advance payment of Rs 1.5 lakh for the tickets to a third party and it was likely that they were resold in Ahmedabad during the India-Pakistan T20.
