No funds to State cricket association without Lodha panel reforms: SC

The Supreme Court on Friday directed that  Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) should not release funds until State cricket associations commit to Lodha panel recommendations, according to reports.

The apex court asked the Lodha panel to appoint an independent auditor to scrutinise BCCI's accounts, and also to fix a limit of financial transaction of the board.
