BCCI moves HC to seek permission for IPL match in Pune

April 20, 2016 11:08

The Board of Control for Cricket in India has moved the Bombay high court seeking permission to hold May 1 Indian Premiere League Match at MCA stadium in Pune.

Earlier, the HC had directed the BCCI to shift all the IPL matches after 30 April out of Maharashtra in view of the severe drought in the state.

During the hearing, the BCCI told the court that it will not be feasible to shift IPL matches out of Pune so late in the day, with the tournament already underway.

Now, the board seeks permission to go ahead with the May 1 match between Rising Pune Supergiants and Mumbai Indians.
