Delhi High Court has rapped Delhi District Cricket Association, DDCA on its decision to remove three selectors from their respective panels, who were chosen at the instructions of court-appointed observer Justice Mukul Mudgal.A bench of Justices S Ravindra Bhat and Deepa Sharma said, DDCA has again crossed its limit when the high court was already seized of the matter and has reserved its order on it. The bench said, this is contempt of court. Recently, the sports working committee of DDCA removed former Indian cricketers Maninder Singh, Atul Wassan and Nikhil Chopra from their respective panels as selectors. Justice Mudgal, through his counsel Nitin Mishra moved the court seeking direction to declare the DDCA's decision as null and void. Justice Mudgal said, the selectors have already selected various teams which are currently playing domestic matches.The removal of senior selectors is only aimed to change the constitution of the playing teams for collateral reasons. High Court also asked DDCA to clear all dues within 48 hours to cricketers, who are presently playing.
