The BCCI today made it very clear that it was not having second thoughts on revoking the ban on former India pacer S. Sreesanth and spinner Ankeet Chavan in the wake of a Delhi Court dropping all charges against them in the IPL 2013 spot-fixing case. All the 36 accused persons including Sreesanth, Chavan and Ajit Chandila were discharged in the IPL-6 spot fixing case by Patiala House Court last week but the Indian Cricket board refused to lift their on-going ban. Meanwhile, Kerala Cricket Association has made a plea to the BCCI for allowing Sreesanth to play again but BCCI Secretary Anurag Thakur said there will be no rethink on the life ban of the two cricketers. All the three accused cricketers Sreesanth and Chavan are currently serving life bans imposed by the BCCI after the scandal shook the high-profile league, while Chandila's hearing is still pending.
