If reports are to be believed, CAB president Jagmohan Dalmiya is set to take over as interim BCCI chief.
According to reports, N Srinivasan has agreed to allow an interim president to take over till the inquiry into IPL spot fixing scandal is over. If the probe clears Srinivasan, he will return to the BCCI, according to the reported compromise formula reached after hectic bargaining from both sides.
The board also rejected Srinivasan's nominee for the replacement of BCCI treasurer Ajay Shirke, who had resigned on Friday in the wake of IPL spot-fixing scandal.
According to reports, Srinivasan, who reached the meeting venue almost three hours early, held a meeting with Jagmohan Dalmiya to work out a compromise formula.
Earlier in the day, in an unexpected twist to the IPL spot-fixing scandal, BCCI president N Srinivasan said he did not dictate any conditions for his exit as the board chief, the Times Now reported.
In the face of a series of protest resignations by top board officials, including IPL commissioner Rajeev Shukla, a defiant Srinivasan has been forced to call an emergency board meeting in Chennai on Sunday.
Srinivasan, who was on Saturday reported to have set four conditions to step down, claimed it was all conspired by media.
It has been widely reported that Srinivasan has laid down four key conditions for stepping aside, pending the BCCI inquiry into the betting-fixing scandal.
These are: a) he should continue to represent India at the International Cricket Council (ICC); b) the two officials who resigned on Friday - board secretary Sanjay Jagdale and treasurer Ajay Shirke - should not return to the board; c) he would choose the secretary and treasurer before he leaves; and d) the interim president should be someone who is already in the board.
