The Committee of Administrators (CoA) on Thursday, 24 January, lifted the suspensions on Indian cricketers Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul, “pending appointment and adjudication of the allegations by the BCCI Ombudsman”.

Both the cricketers had been banned pending inquiry by the BCCI for their controversial comments on the TV chat show ‘Koffee With Karan’. And with investigation reaching the Supreme Court due to infighting in the CoA, both cricketers’ playing careers had been put on hold.

The decision to lift their suspensions while the inquiry is on, was welcomed by the cricket fraternity and fans on Twitter.
