The Maharashtra Cricket Association (MCA) faces allegations of favoritism and political interference in its upcoming elections, scheduled for January 6. The voter list expanded significantly from 154 to 571 members, with critics claiming relatives and associates of MCA chairperson Rohit Pawar were added to secure his re-election. While MCA officials deny wrongdoing, stating adherence to rules, some former players and coaches question the inclusion of non-cricketers and family members over genuine contributors.
