In what could help his return to grade cricket, the Delhi high court on Thursday directed the Board of Control for Cricket in India to consider all-rounder Ajay Jadeja for selection in Ranji Trophy matches if found eligible, in view of an arbitrator's ruling in his favour.
Arbitrator Justice A K Mehra, who was appointed by the high court, had given a ruling in Jadeja's favour on the five-year ban imposed on him by the BCCI in the wake of the match-fixing controversy.
The award is to become final and binding on April 27.
