The three-member committee set up by the Delhi government to probe into the allegations of corruption within the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) has recommended that the BCCI suspend the association.

Delhi’s chances of hosting the fourth Test between India and South Africa are looking highly unlikely after the three member committee has recommended the suspension of DDCA. The committee also recommended the setting up of an interim group of former cricketers to run the day-to-day affairs.

The committee, however, has not made any recommendations about whether or not to allow Delhi to host the fourth test. “There is no mention of the India-South Africa Test match in the report. There is no relation between the report and the Test match. The DDCA is misleading. Wrong rumours have been spread," the government official said to ESPNcricinfo.

The committee comprising of secretaries from the urban and sports departments along with the standing legal counsel for Delhi government was appointed last week to look into the corruption allegations in DDCA. Other key recommendations from the committee includes the need to bring a clear law on sports in the state.

Additionally, the BCCI had set November 17, today, as the deadline for DDCA to acquire all necessary clearances from the Delhi government to host the fourth and final test between India and South Africa.
