A bench headed by Justice Dipak Misra said since Srinivasan has been held guilty by the Supreme Courtfor conflict of interest, he cannot be allowed to represent the BCCI in the ICC meeting.

"It is directed that Amitabh Chaudhary shall represent the BCCI in the ICC meeting and Rahul Johri shall accompany him and he (Johri) will also attend the meetings of the CEOs'," the bench declared.
