It has been some time since this blog featured analysis of the legal aspects of the regulation of cricket. (See here for some previous posts by V. Venkatesan in 2008, which might also induce some nostalgia in older readers of the blog).
Today’s Indian Express has a succinct op-ed by Abhishek Tripathi which sets out some of the background context of the recent decision of the Indian Supreme Court on the powers of the BCCI. The case also has implications for regulation more generally and it will be interesting to see how this case is applied to regulatory contexts other than cricket in the future.
