Karnataka batsman Manish Pandey received a four-match ban for breaching player guidelines, but can play for Pune Warriors, the Governing Council said on Friday.
On Pandey, Srinivasan said based on the complaints from franchisees and after meeting with the player, the GC imposed the four-match ban.
“He cannot play the first four matches of IPL Season-4. As desired by him, he is permitted to play for the Pune franchise,” Srinivasan’s statement added.
Amin told reporters that Pandey, through his agent, had haggled with several franchises.
“Pandey’s agent was negotiating with a number of franchises,” was how Amin put it.
