Vikram Rathour appointment put on hold
Former India opener Vikram Rathour's appointment as the batting coach of India A and U-19 team has been put on hold after his Conflict of Interest was brought to the notice of the Committee of Administrators (CoA).
Rathour was supposed to start with India A assignment in Wayanad but for now his appointment has been stalled indefinitely.
Rathour is the brother-inlaw of current India U-19 national selector Ashish Kapoor and his appointment would have been a case of Conflict of Interest.
"Yes, the CoA had given a go ahead for Rathour's appointment but today Rathour gave a written declaration of his relation with Kapoor," a senior BCCI official said.
However with no Ethics officer in BCCI, it was thought Rathour's appointment would have sent out wrong signals.
