Sreesanth on Wednesday moved the Kerala High Court seeking a directive to the \u00a0Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) to lift the life ban imposed on him by the disciplinary committee of the board. The BCCI had refused to consider a legal notice sent by him on February 16 seeking to revoke the ban.<\/p>\n<p>Sreesanth submitted that Glenroth Club of Scotland had invited him for playing a premier league match scheduled to be held in the first week of April, for which NOC from BCCI is mandatory. \u00a0Though he made a specific request on February 11 to grant NOC, so far it \u00a0has not replied. \u00a0 He has to give NOC \u00a0to the Scotland team before March 2.<\/p>\n<p>Sreesanth, who was part of the World Cup winning squad, was handed a life ban by the BCCI for his alleged involvement in the spot-fixing scandal during IPL 2013. \u00a0The BCCI had made it clear that Sreesanth during this period will not be entitled to be associated with any activities of the BCCI or its affiliates.<\/p>\n<p>Sreesanth submitted \u00a0that though repeated requests seeking to lift the ban were filed before the BCCI, they were \u00a0denied. \u00a0The Assistant Sessions Judge, Delhi Patiala Court, \u00a0had acquitted him from the case on July 25, 2015. After the order of the trial court, \u00a0he had made a specific request to revoke the ban. However, the BCCI has refused to revoke its earlier decision.<\/p>\n<p>Sreesanth argued that the inquiry commissioner of the BCCI relied only on the depositions and other materials gathered by the Delhi police for preparing the reports against him. He contended that \u00a0the BCCI has not conducted any other probe, and \u00a0so the ban order is illegal and \u00a0in violation of the principles of natural justice.<\/p>\n<p>The Delhi police had arrested Sreesanth along with two of his team mates on May 16, 2013. Following this, the BCCI had suspended him from all cricket activities and formed a disciplinary committee to decide further action.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.wakilsahab.in\/news\/sreesanth-moves-kerala-high-court-for-lifting-bcci-ban\/\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"5\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground:  !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source:- deccanchronicle.com Kochi: Former Indian Test player S.
