The Andhra Pradesh High Court issued notices to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and its former president A C Muthaiah in an appeal filed by former captain Mohammed Azharuddin against a lower court verdict upholding his disqualification from participation in Test cricket.
The division bench comprising Justice Bilal Nazki and Justice T Gopala Krishna directed Azharuddin's counsel to serve the notices personally, so that the appeal could be heard finally on March 9.
Azharuddin had challenged BCCI's decision to disqualify him on the charges of match fixing.
