The Supreme Court on Monday agreed with the Lodha panel recommendation that "no minister or serving bureaucrat can be memberof the BCCI board". It accepted major recommendations of Justice R M Lodha panel on structural reforms in the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).

It accepted the panel's recommendation that there should be a players' association in the BCCI and the funding of players' association accepted while leaving it to the Board to decide the extent of funding. The bench also accepted the recommendation that one person should hold one post in cricket administration to avoid any conflict of interest and scrapping of all other administrative committees in the BCCI after CAG nominee comes in. The BCCI has been given time of six months to implement these changes which were recommended by the commission.
