In what comes as a major boost for the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), it has won a legal battle against Deccan Chronicle Holdings (DCHL) as the Bombay High Court has decided in favour of the Indian board.

Speaking to ANI, a BCCI official in the know of developments said it was a welcome decision. "We are extremely happy with the development. It has vindicated our position as we had always followed what was in the agreement," the official said.
