The Supreme Court of India had given BCCI six months to implement the recommendations given by Lodha Panel.
BCCI had earlier appealed against many of the suggestions of Lodha Panel, but the SC bench of Chief Justice T.S. Thakur and Justice F.M.I. Kalifullah upheld most of them.
The SC bench said that they had no reason to interfere in the recommendations of Lodha Panel.

Most of the administrators have to quit their role
-
If the recommendations of Lodha Panel are implemented, it is very likely that most of the administrators with the state associations and the BCCI will have to quit their role as they violate the tenure limit and age restrictions put by Lodha Panel.

The current media rights deal with Sony Max ending next year is worth $1.6 billion.
The new deal, worth 'astronomical value' needs to be signed before 30 August this year. But with no one to negotiate the deal, it could mean the deal won't happen, costing BCCI a lot of money.
No one from BCCI commented on what will be their next step.
