Legal Dispute Halts Arunachal Pradesh Cricket, Ranji Trophy Participation Uncertain
Arunachal Pradesh's cricket participation is halted due to a legal dispute within the Arunachal Cricket Association (ACA). Following contested state executive elections and allegations of irregularities by six district bodies, the Guwahati High Court's Itanagar Bench issued a stay on the ACA's functioning. This has prevented team selections and preparations, causing the state to forfeit its U-19 Vinoo Mankad Trophy match and putting the upcoming Ranji Trophy opener against Nagaland at risk. The BCCI cannot intervene until the court delivers a judgment.
