The BCCI today refused to revoke 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. Talking to reporters in New Delhi, BCCI Secretary Anurag Thakur said there will be no rethink on the life ban of the two cricketers. He said the earlier decision of BCCI's disciplinary committee ban on the case will stay on. 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 board had refused to lift their ongoing ban. Of the three, Sreesanth and Chavan are currently serving life bans imposed by the BCCI while Chandila's hearing is still on.
