Kolkata, July 15 (IANS): Indian Premier League's (IPL) governing council chairman Rajiv Shukla on Wednesday said its proposed meeting on Sunday will cosntitute a committee which will look into the best interests of the league.
"In the governing council meeting on Sunday, we will form a committee which will look into the best interest of the players, the IPL," Shukla told reporters here emerging midway into an emergency meeting with Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president Jagmohan Dalmiya and knit a damage-control strategy.
