Reasons
What did MCA ask for the match to be shifted?
It is believed that Mumbai Cricket Association had written to the BCCI stating that its financial situation is in jeopardy as of now.
MCA is unable to operate the bank accounts after the Committee of Administrators appointed by the Bombay High Court gave up control of the accounts.
MCA is not sure who will now take charge of the finances.
