Shesh Narayan, Ayub and John feel that cricket has not been given priority in recent years. | Photo Credit: NAGARA GOPAL Former Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA) president Arshad Ayub, along with ex-secretaries K. John Manoj and T. Shesh Narayan, urged the newly-elected secretary M. Jeevan Reddy to convene the Annual General Meeting (AGM) at the earliest. They stressed that it was essential to restore the ‘broken system’. The former office-bearers expressed concern that cricket has not been given priority in recent years. “It is painful to see that norms are being thrown to the wind and, in the process, cricket is suffering. Violating the byelaws is a violation of the Supreme Court orders. But, the administrators are least bothered about following the norms,” Ayub said.
