Twitter Reacts: Can There be a BCCI Without its Ministers?

The Supreme Court appointed Justice Lodha Committee made some interesting recommendations to remove corruption from the Board of Control for Cricket in India today.

The most eye-catching suggestion was to disallow any minister or government servant to hold any posts in the BCCI.

Cricket fans around India were very appreciative of the list of recommendations. Here’s a look at the reactions on Twitter.

There should be no room for our conniving assbags of politicians in sport ... BCCI should be run by former cricketers, not ministers
