Kapil, Wadekar to appear before Madhavan

Former India captains and coaches Kapil Dev and Ajit Wadekar will appear before Board of Control for Cricket in India's vigilance commissioner K Madhavan next week in Delhi.

While Wadekar is scheduled to meet Madhavan on Monday morning, Kapil's meeting has been fixed for Wednesday.

Kapil Dev was to meet Madhavan at Delhi's Ferozeshah Kotla on Saturday morning while Wadekar's meeting was fixed for Sunday. However, Madhavan informed that both had requested postponements.

"Wadekar will meet me on January 8 and Kapil Dev on January 10," Madhavan said late on Friday night.

BCCI vice-president C K Khanna, who is also the Delhi and District Cricket Association vice-president, said: "Madhavan has asked us to provide facilities at the Delhi and District Cricket Association office for the meeting with Wadekar on Monday morning."

Khanna, however, said he has no information about when Kapil Dev would meet the board's anti-corruption commissioner.

Till late Friday evening it wasn't sure whether Kapil Dev would keep his appointment while Wadekar had announced last week in Bombay that he would.

Kapil Dev had received a clean chit from the CBI in its report on match-fixing as allegations against him were found to be baseless.
